`‘468 Patent Teaches Updating Data in Different
`
`Devices, NOT Just the Monitoring DeviceDevices, NOT Just the Monitoring Device
`-- The ’468 patent
`
`discloses updatingdiscloses updating
`“state tables.”
`See, e.g., Ex. 1001,
`
`AbstractAbstract.
`
`-- The updated
`
`
`t blt tstate tables can be b
`
`in the appliance, the
`command receiver,
`or a remote device.

`
`Cohen Discloses “Updating”
`-- Patent Owner argues that “to the extent that
`
`any device in Cohen is updating dataany device in Cohen is updating data
`representing an appliance’s state, it is the
`
`entirely separate ‘outside world’ hostentirely separate outside world host
`computer, and not monitor 34 of of Cohen.”
`See POR at 6 (emphasis added).
`
`-- The claims, however, do not limit “updating”
`to be performed by only one specific device,
`such as the monitor.

`
`• Claim 33 requires that the updated “data is maintained

`• As discussed above, Cohen discloses locally maintained
`
`data in monitor 34. See, e.g., Ex. 1005 (Cohen) at 4:1-7.data in monitor 34. See, e.g., Ex. 1005 (Cohen) at 4:1 7.
