We have developed a new firmware update for the TimeMoto TM-818SC, TM-828SC, and TM-838SC time clock systems.
Please note: You only need to update your firmware if your current firmware version is Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800-01, Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800 2.1, 8.0.3.7-TM800 2.4, Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800 3.0, Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800 3.1, Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800 3.3, or Ver 8.0.3.7-TM800 3.4.
If your current firmware version is 3.7, 3.9, or 4.1, no update is required. These versions provide identical features and performance. The only differences lie in compatibility with specific hardware configurations of the time clock.
