Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings in all instances of Sierra Chart:
Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings

After that re-download the data:

Re-download all the data in the chart by going to the chart and selecting "Edit >> Delete All Data and Download". You just need to do this once per symbol and not for each chart.
