Let's say there are three versions: 1, 2, and 3. The machine had been running #1. If the engineer puts in #2, it's an updated version.

If the engineer puts in #2, it's an updated version. Only #3 is the latest version. (It's also updated.)

updated - You normally update the existing system, ie leave it in place and just apply the updates.
latest - There is only one 'latest', so you'd have to say 'the latest one'
