Software: TC Icon and
UpCon firmware
Operating UpCon requires a TC Icon remote
or a computer running the TC Icon software.
When you are working with a system involving
one or multiple UpCon units, you are interacting
with two types of software:
1. TC Icon software:
TC Icon is the software that you will install on
the computer(s) which you are using to ac-
cess, configure, operate and update the Up-
Con unit(s).
TC Icon software is available for Microsoft
Windows and Mac OS X operating systems.
TC Icon software is free and can be in-
stalled on multiple computers.
Downloading and installing TC Icon software
is described in this section of the UpCon man-
ual.
2. TC UpCon firmware:
UpCon firmware is the software installed on
every UpCon.
Every UpCon comes pre-installed with the
most current firmware version available at the
time of production. You can download newer
versions of UpCon firmware from the TC web-
site. Updated firmware versions will contain
bug fixes and/or new features.
UpCon firmware updates are free.
Use TC Icon software installed on your com-
puter (see above) to transfer firmware to your
UpCon unit(s).
Downloading and installing UpCon firmware
updates is described in “Updating UpCon
firmware” on page 28.
