- **Add device** – Create a new device with a name and optional device code

- **Create token** – Generate a new API token for a device

For each device, the following settings for **automatic spool assignment** can be configured:

| Setting | Description |

|---------|-------------|

| **Auto-Assign enabled** | When enabled, weighing a spool on this device will automatically send a pending assignment to all connected printers. As soon as the spool is inserted into an AMS slot, the filament settings are automatically transmitted. |

| **Auto-Assign Timeout** | Time in seconds after which a pending assignment is automatically discarded (default: 60 seconds). If no spool is inserted within this time, the assignment expires. |

Click **"Install Plugin"** in the top right. A dialog opens with two installation options:

1. The **"Install from Registry"** dropdown shows all available plugins

2. The list is automatically loaded from the official plugin repository ([Fire-Devils/filaman-plugins](https://github.com/Fire-Devils/filaman-plugins)) on GitHub

3. Select the desired plugin from the dropdown — name, version, and description are displayed

4. Click **"Install Plugin"** to start the installation

5. FilaMan automatically downloads, validates, and installs the plugin

1. Below the registry dropdown, you'll find the **"Plugin ZIP File"** section

2. Drag and drop a `.zip` file into the marked area — or click to select a file

3. The file is automatically validated (structure, manifest, security)

4. On successful validation, a confirmation with plugin details appears

5. Click **"Install Plugin"** to complete the installation

Click **"Check for Updates"** in the top right, next to the Install button.

- FilaMan compares installed plugin versions with the latest versions in the registry

- If updates are available, a notification shows the number of available updates

- Each plugin with an available update displays the new version number

- An update is performed by **re-installing** the plugin from the registry — the existing plugin is automatically upgraded

Each plugin can be enabled or disabled via the **toggle switch** in the Status column:

- **Enabled** — The plugin is active and its features are available (e.g. printer drivers are loaded)

- **Disabled** — The plugin remains installed but is inactive. Already connected printers will be disconnected

1. Click **"Uninstall"** in the Actions column of the plugin

2. Confirm the uninstallation in the confirmation dialog

3. An additional prompt asks whether to also delete the **plugin data** (e.g. extra fields, printer parameters):

- **Yes** — Removes the plugin and all associated data (extra fields, saved parameters)

- **No** — Removes only the plugin; data is preserved (useful when reinstalling)

Click **"Details"** to view detailed information about a plugin:

- Plugin name, version, and description

- Plugin type (Driver / Import / Integration)

- Author and homepage
