System Updates
System Updates allows you to schedule regular inquiries to an Update Server on the Internet
for available E-41 updates. The E-41 checks automatically for updates by contacting the
Update Server periodically.
System Updates also allows users to obtain updated versions of E-41 user software (utilities)
and install them onto client computers that connect to the E-41. The updated applications
are first downloaded from the Update Server to a partition on the E-41 HDD. Users access
the E-41 over the Internet and download the updated applications onto client computers and
then manually install them.
You can also view and download updates at any time using the
Check Now
feature (requires
FACI or a Remote Desktop connection; see
). Use Check Now to view and manually
download updates that are available for installation (Patches tab) and/or view a list of updates
that have already been installed (History tab).
You can also launch Check Now by clicking on an update notification in the task bar on the
E-41 monitor.
System Updates can be accessed in the following ways:
• Directly from a FACI-equipped E-41.
• From a client computer through a Remote Desktop connection (must be enabled in Setup
and on the client computer; see
“Enabling Remote Desktop” on page 117
• From a client computer through WebTools > Configure > Launch Configure.
• From a client computer through Command WorkStation > Server > Setup > Server >
System Update.
For a detailed procedure, see
“To schedule System Updates” on page 113
“Before updating the E-41” on page 111
before scheduling System
Updates.
