CAFAM - Downloads

Note : This tech note is applicable only to users of CAFAM for WINDOWS ONLY

Introduction

We have written these notes to help you keep your Windows version of CAFAM up to date.

Update Process

Win-CAFAM is updated by downloading two zip files from our website www.cafam.net. Download as applicable to the version of Program you are using. See list below for file names and description.

AMP - Aircraft Maintenance Program

cafmwamp.zip - contains the current CAFAM-AMP Program files

ua4_amp.zip - contains all the Reports in European A4 size

PSP - Parts Stockist Program

cafmwpsp.zip - contains the current CAFAM-PSP Program files

ua4_psp.zip - contains all the Reports in European A4 size

1. First and foremost – create a reliable, easy to restore Back-up of the entire CAFAM directory. Simplest suggestion here is to copy the entire CAFAM folder from the Server to the local hard disk.

2. Then, Copy/”Save as” the update files as applicable to you to the folder where the CAFAM program is located on the Server (or local hard drive). Typically you would download cafmwamp.zip, ua4_amp.zip.

3. Unzip these two files to overwrite all previous files – you will need a password from us for this process.

4. Lastly, execute one of two programs (part of the suite of files supplied)

AMNDSTRU.EXE for AMP users

AMNDPSP.EXE for PSP Users

These programs check your data files and amend the structures as found necessary to match Win-CAFAM.

Points to Note
