To update BMW navigation map system, FSC activation codes is required. Follow are two ways to get FSC code for BMW F-series F22 (only applied to NorthAmerica NEXT NBT navi)
What you need:
1) NorthAmerican NEXT maps
Different BMW head units use different maps, like MOVE, NEXT etc, here
we specially work on NorthAmerican NEXT maps (you can check from iDrive
to see your car is running in NorthAmerican region and maps type is
"NEXTâ€)
2) At least 32 GB flash driver to save the FAT32 formatted update files
3) You need an FSC activation code.
There are two ways to get FSC activation code:
1 Using BMW Navigation map FSC Code CIC NBT Calculator software
There
is a BMW NBT&CIC Navigation map update calculator which allows us
to read FSC code for both for NBT and CIC system. The software can be
only works on Win XP 32 bit operating system. To use the software, you
need additional USB dongle.
2 Using ENET (Ethernet to OBD) E-SYS cable
ENET
cable with E-SYS software is designed to code BMW F- series. E-sys
coding software is capable of generating FSC code as well. Follow these
steps:
Connect the ENET cable with vehicle
Go to "FSC extendedâ€
Enter "Diagnostic Address 0x63â€
Click "Identifyâ€
The Base variant should show "HU_NBT"
Enter "Application ID 0xDE (for NBT)â€
Enter "Upgrade Index 0x1â€
Move Store FSC from the left to the right ->
Click "Readâ€
Click "Save†and store the file as "DE.fscâ€
The software will display a command prompt window and execute as follows
"nbt.exe DE.fsc 0xA8 0x06 <7DIGITVIN>â€
Then E-sys will generate your FSC Activation Code for the upgrade
NOTE:
Keep in mind this FSC Activation Code is only good with this
Region/Year set of Navigation Updates. You will need a new one every
time you perform a new upgrade.
4) Run output file from previous steps without any changes on NBT.exe (i.e. nbt.exe DE.fsc 0xA8 0x06 <7DIGITVIN>)
Downloaded the 2015-2 software via Internet
