BT / Acaia with Artisan & Monterey 12.0.1

[Skjagodski]

After upgrading my Mac to Monterey, Artisan works fine, just like on the earlier OS versions.
The BT connect to the Acaia scale seems not to be active though.
"---" appears instead of the weight.
Maybe I overlooked / skipped the pop up question to allow BT connections for Artisan.
Is there a menu where I can activate / allow the BT connect?

I checked and Artisan has access to BT...

Just checked Artisan v2.4.6 on Monterey and it connects to my Acaia. Which scale are you using? Did you select "acaia" under Config >> Ports >> Scale?

[Skjagodski]

I use the big black one, the black Pearl. Also tried the little black Lunar. And the tiny silver Cinco.
I had nog changed the port settings, keeping the config from earlier Artisan installs.
I tried to select different port settings also..

I am asking about the scale as the newer 2021 and the Pearl-S models will be supported only by the next Artisan release.

You might check the current continuous build and see if that works for you. If not, please activate debug logging by pressing OPTION+COMMAND (macOS) while clicking on the plus icon in the upper left corner (ALT+CONTROL on Windows), connect to the scale and add here the log file (click again the plus icon while holding just the OPTION rsp. the ALT key).

The CommPort does not play a role for BLE communication. However, older Windows version are not supported. This should work from Windows 10 on.

Thanks! I downloaded the install from
https://github.com/artisan-roaster-scope/artisan/releases/tag/v2.4.6
and after starting it, the request to allow BT comms did come on screen, I OK'd it and the scale was recognized!
All good

"The newer 2021 and the Pearl-S models will be supported only by the next Artisan release."

So the older Acaia models will no longer wirelessly communicate with future Artisan versions? It's not a problem, a good reason to upgrade my Acaia collection ;-)

[MAKOMO]

No, the next version of Artisan will support the full range of Acaia scales, old and new. The current version v2.4.6 only supports the original Lunar and Pearl.
