Amazon just sent me an ethernet cable and an ether2usb-c adapter, plus I have my Tab2 nearly fully charged. Now I need to do an update, but not sure how to proceed. Ican't find an application named Pacman listed in programs - can anyone help me out?

The system installed in the pinetab2 comes with a gui called discover.
I don't like it much personally, but it can be helpful if it's your first time.
You can install updates with it, it will warn you when you open it (i think at the bottom).

On the other side here's pacman wiki page from arch you will find the options for it explained:
