laser_service_v1.2.2.zip– exe, example config.ini, install/uninstall scripts and the marking-flow docs (EN/DE)laser_service.exe– the service executable onlymarking-flow.html/marking-flow.de.html– marking cycle documentation (EN/DE)
Changed
- The program is now selected before every marking, including
ProgramNumber = 0000.0000is a regular program on the laser and no longer means "don't switch". - The setting
Marking.JobIDwas removed. The text is always written into the program that is used for the marking. An existingJobIDentry in config.ini is ignored and can stay.
Fixed
- With a trigger (e.g.
SDH1234+3→ program 0003), the text was written to program 0000 (JOB=000), so the mapped program marked its old text. Now the text goes to blockBlockNumberof the mapped program:WX,JOB=0003,BLK=000,CharacterString=SDH1234. - Without a trigger, the laser kept the program of the previous part (e.g. 0003) instead of switching back to the default program. The default program from
ProgramNumberis now always selected and receives the text. - An invalid
ProgramNumber(not 1–4 digits) now fails the cycle with a log message instead of being sent to the laser.
Upgrading
- Stop the service:
laser_service.exe -stop - Replace
laser_service.exewith the new one - Start the service:
laser_service.exe -start
Check that
ProgramNumberin the production config.ini is the default program you want. It is now always selected.⚠️ Do not overwrite the production
config.iniwith the example from the ZIP. It holds your laser IP, NUMROTO log path and program mappings.Downloads

laser_service.exe– the service, web UI built inlaser_service_v1.2.1.zip– full package: exe,config.ini,install.bat,uninstall.bat, docsmarking-flow.html/marking-flow.de.html– flow documentation (English / German)
Changed
- The NUMROTO log wins over
CharacterString: ifCSVLogFileis set, theWerkzeugnameof its last
row is always marked.CharacterStringis a fixed text that is only used when no NUMROTO log is set
(e.g. for tests).- Before, a non-empty
CharacterStringreplaced the part name from the log on every marking – e.g.
CharacterString = Tfrom the example config marked "T" on every part. - If the NUMROTO log is set but can't be read, the marking fails (as before) – it does not fall back
toCharacterString.
- Before, a non-empty
- Web UI wording: the CSV setting is now called NUMROTO Log, the fixed text is shown as
CharacterString. The Settings tab shows which text will be used (log, fixed text, or nothing).
Upgrading from v1.2.0
laser_service.exe -stop- Replace
laser_service.exe laser_service.exe -start- Web UI → Settings → enter the path of the NUMROTO log under NUMROTO Log → Save Settings.
"Saved – NUMROTO log not found" means the path is wrong or the file isn't there right now.
No configuration changes needed;
CharacterString = Tcan stay, it is ignored while a NUMROTO log is set.⚠️ Don't overwrite the production
config.iniwith the example from the ZIP.Downloads

laser_service.exe– the service, web UI built inlaser_service_v1.2.0.zip– full package: exe,config.ini,install.bat,uninstall.bat, docsmarking-flow.html/marking-flow.de.html– flow documentation (English / German)
New
- Settings tab in the web UI: Dashboard (status, statistics, control, logs) and Settings
(settings and program mapping) are now separate tabs. http://localhost:8080/#settings opens the
Settings tab directly. - Monitored CSV file in the web UI (Settings → CSV File,
CSVLogFile): set or change the CSV file
whose last row'sWerkzeugnameis marked. Takes effect from the next marking, no restart needed.- Paths copied with Explorer's Copy as path (with quotes) are accepted.
- A file that doesn't exist (yet) is saved anyway, but reported next to the Save Settings button and in the log.
- Fixed Text (
CharacterString) is shown next to the CSV file. If it is filled in, it is marked instead
and the CSV file is not read – the Settings tab warns when both are set. - Save Settings now shows whether saving worked (Saved / error) next to the button.
Fixed
- Program mappings or other config entries lost when saving:
- Saving no longer rewrites
config.inifrom scratch: comments, extra keys and sections are kept. - A trigger ending in
\broke the whole[ProgramMapping]section on the next start, so all mappings
were dropped and the next save wiped them from the file. config.iniis now written toconfig.ini.tmp, read back and only replaced if every value matches.
Ifconfig.inican't be read, it is not overwritten.- A
[ProgramMapping]section that fails to load (e.g. after a hand edit) is no longer wiped when
other settings are saved.
- Saving no longer rewrites
Upgrading from v1.1.x
laser_service.exe -stop- Replace
laser_service.exe laser_service.exe -start
No configuration changes. The first save from the web UI aligns the
=signs inconfig.iniand drops
unneeded quotes (e.g.CharacterString = "T"→CharacterString = T); values and comments stay the same.⚠️ Don't overwrite the production
config.iniwith the example from the ZIP.⚠️ If marking should use the CSV file, clear Fixed Text in the Settings tab – the example config has
CharacterString = "T", which always wins over the CSV file.Downloads

v1.1.1 Stable
released this
2026-10-27 10:57:50 +00:00 | 8 commits to master since this releaseBugfix release for v1.1.0.
Fixed
- Web UI unusable while the laser is unreachable (#1): the error popup reopened about every second
and its invisible full-screen backdrop swallowed all clicks – e.g. Add Mapping did nothing.- Laser errors are now shown in a red banner under the header that doesn't block anything and
disappears by itself once the laser is reachable again. - The popup is only used for errors from your own actions (e.g. saving failed) and can now also be
closed by clicking outside it or pressing Esc. - Losing the connection to the service no longer opens the popup (the header shows Disconnected).

laser_service.exe– the service; the web UI is built in, nowebfolder neededlaser_service_v1.1.0.zip– full package: exe,config.ini,install.bat,uninstall.bat, docsmarking-flow.html/marking-flow.de.html– flow documentation (English / German), open in any browser
New
- Program mapping: map any trigger at the end of the name to a laser program in the web UI
(panel Program Mapping), e.g.+3 → 0003,#1 → 0001,*88 → 0088,€ → 0001.
SDH1234+3marksSDH1234with program 0003. Longest matching trigger wins; no match → defaultProgramNumber. - Wait after marking is configurable (
PostMarkingDelay, ms, default 20000, 0 = off) inconfig.iniand the web UI. - Daily log files in
logs\laser_YYYY-MM-DD.log, kept for 10 days (LogDir,LogRetentionDays). -debugflag: run interactively with verbose logging of laser commands.- Web UI embedded in the exe.
- CSV: the last row is used for
Werkzeugname.
Fixes
- As a Windows service, the working directory is now the exe folder (was
C:\Windows\System32),
soconfig.iniandlogs\are found next to the exe. - Debug flag is read thread-safely and active from startup.
Upgrading
laser_service.exe -stop- Replace
laser_service.exe(an oldweb\folder can be deleted) laser_service.exe -start- Add the program mappings in the web UI (http://localhost:8080 → Program Mapping)
⚠️ Do not overwrite the production
config.iniwith the one from the ZIP – it is an example config
(CharacterString = "T", noCSVLogFile). Existing configs keep working; new settings fall back to defaults.⚠️ The old
#0001suffix no longer selects a program by itself – add mappings like#1 → 0001instead.
