The BC_VUP3 will update the scanner to the latest version available for your specific scanner. See this page.

The current 'public' version is the 1.10.02.

The version in your scanner is 1.10.05. That's a 'slightly' later version for newer production scanners, to make them operate the same as the ones already in the field. The 1.10.05 firmware accounts for changes in internal hardware components, where one or more specific parts used in previous released units are no longer available. The 'newer, version is configured so that the newer scanners, with the currently available components operate exactly the same as those with the older (but now no longer available) internal parts. If and when an actual "new" firmware is released, to tweak existing features, or perhaps add something new (if the scanner is capable of that).
