Introducing Update Manager
Note: The appearance of the different windows may differ slightly from those
presented in this documentation, depending on the type of unit that you
have.
Update Manager enables you to manage the applications developed for
your unit and test instruments. With the provided wizard you can add,
update or remove products.
You can quickly see what is installed on your unit, and which updates are
available. Update Manager handles all dependencies between software
installations and updates for you.
It also verifies if the FTB-Care license entitles you to a software upgrade. If
this is not the case, you need to activate an FTB-Care license in your
platform (see Activating FTB-Care Licenses on page 28).
Note: FTB-Care is not offered on MAX-700 units.The information above about
FTB-Care license does not apply to these units.
Note: Since EXFO products are made of specific files, always use Update
Manager to install or remove your deployment packages.
