Purpose
This document describes the installation and operation of the Universal TED
Updater. The Universal TED Updater (SAIUniTedUpd) is a maintenance utility to
be installed on an RCAS, DNCS, EC, or any system with a directly connected

If the old TED updater package (SAITedUpd) is installed on the current system,
SAIUniTedUpd will not install, and subsequently will instruct the operator to

SAIUniTedUpd will not install, and subsequently will instruct the operator to
remove the SAITedUpd package.
Once installed, execution of the Universal TED Updater allows the operator to
remotely update the connected TED. It should be noted, that if an old TED
updater is executed prior to the Universal TED Updater execution, the latter could
refuse to upgrade the TED. More importantly, however, this type of exception
does not compromise system integrity or functionality whatsoever. In fact, this
behavior is provided to protect against such system defects.
