TGCS does not provide firmware updates for scanners or scales, since we do not manufacture them. However, both UPOS and 4690 OS will update OEM scanners and scales with the update file provided by the device manufacturer. Contact the relevant OEM for the new firmware file, then follow the normal UPOS and 4690 OS procedures to apply the new firmware to your device.

Firmware for TGCS USB POS Devices |
Firmware for USB devices is organised by ascending USB product ID.
Due to product age not all generations of firmware are supported any more (old versions are just posted here for reference), refer to the End of Engineering Support announcements for more information.
Due to chip shortages you may see multiple versions of firmware for the same device, this is normal and expected as we change the processor inside each device. You cannot upgrade a device from one generation to another.
Instructions for upgrading USB firmware are at the end of the table.
Notes
[1] 4610-Tx1/2 printers do not have a USB interface. These printers are no longer supported.
[2] 4610-Tx3/4/5/6/7 printers have separate firmware versions for the USB printer interface & printing functions. These printers are no longer supported.
[3] 4610-Tx8/9 printers have one consolidated firmware file for USB interface & printing functions. The firmware is updated via the printer interface, not the USB interface. These printers are no longer supported.
[4] 4610-xxR printers have one consolidated firmware file for USB interface & printing functions. The firmware is updated via the printer interface, not the USB interface. Printer firmware for these printers can be found at the top of the page in the POS Printer section.
[5] This is the same content as the MUS UP packages but suitable for use with UPOS & USB Diags.
