34 The Information Company
with version 7.32) can be used to save the TX1 firmware package file (.tx1_pkg) to any
location available to your host system, which can then be made available to your TX1 to
update its own SD card (without having to remove it from the unit). Finally, you can
update the firmware remotely, using the web interface.
Note: A firmware update cannot be started while a job is running. This is true when
initiating an update from the local user interface (after selecting the firmware package file)
or after a remote user has uploaded a firmware package file to TX1. It is recommended
that all active users on a given TX1 (local and remote) collaborate to ensure no jobs are
running or will be started before a firmware update is initiated.
To update your TX1 firmware, select one of these options:
• SD card removal update method – To remove the SD card, turn the TX1 power off,
then firmly push the SD card inward until it clicks, and release. The SD card will pop
out. Gently remove the card and store it safely until it can be updated with TFU and
returned to the unit. When re-inserting the SD card, be sure to gently push it in (label
side up with angled edge toward the unit) until it clicks, then release. The SD card
locks in position when it is properly inserted.
• Package file update method – Note that the SD card does not need to be removed
for this option. Use TFU (version 7.32 and later) to save the required TX1
programming file (.tx1_pkg file) to the desired location (for example, an attached USB
drive or to a network share that will later be accessible to TX1). On the TX1 that is
being updated (using either the local or remote UI), make sure that the memory
device (USB drive or network share) that contains the .tx1_pkg file is mounted and
accessible to TX1. Then tap the Firmware Version item (or About) on the side
navigation menu, and then the Browse for Firmware button, as shown in the
screenshot below.
