I am using a Mac to manually download files from Advanced Flight Systems and Seattle Avionics for use on my AFS 5600.
I noticed that http://advanced-flight-systems.com/Support/AF-5600/AF5600support.html#software says I should have a folder called "AFS5XXXUS", depicted in this screen shot: http://advanced-flight-systems.com/Support/AF-5600/usb-drive.png.
But I don't have that folder. My USB drive only has folders for "ChartData" and "HRTERRAIN", as well as the three AF2*US.AFM files and the three *.dup files.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Bob

AFS5XXXUS is a trigger folder created by the Seattle Avionics Data Manager application. It's not required by the EFIS. The AF2TER**.AFM or AF2VEC**.AFM files are used by AF-3/4000 displays and aren't needed for the AF-5000.
