Spanish term or phrase: Telecarga
I have to translate "telecarga"into english. Eurodictum tells me it's UPLOAD or UPLOADING but Websters tells me it can be both UPLOADING or DOWNLOADING.

The context is:

Esta función proporcionará la recarga software de los ERO a distancia. Se entiende por recarga la transferencia de las tablas de configuración, funciones de aplicación residentes y funciones de comunicación de mensajes
Cipriana
English translation:remote reloading
Explanation:
The term in the source text is 'recarga' , not 'telecarga'.

Esta función proporcionará la recarga software de los ERO a distancia
-->
This function handles the remote reloading of the ERO software ...

reloading, like recarga (y telecarga) can be in either direction, so the uncertainly of the source text is conserved.

Updating


Explanation:
if talking about the renewal of data, it is not important if the load is "up" or "down", es actualizar y punto.

neutral  Jennifer Levey: But the data may not actually be 'renewed' or 'updated', which imply newer versions - it may simply be recovery of existing data (e.g. backup).
