I understand the TGX was trialled on the 747/748 Airlink service which oddly enough still operates in the "OldenTimes" cash handling mode.....so the change ticket speed would never have been flagged.....Hmmmmmmm....
AFAIK, it was also tried on the 49 out of Ringsend Garage for several months before moving all buses out of Ringsend over to the new system. I'm not sure, but I think I heard they were trialling a smart card at the time too.
