Is the release code the code needed to generate the activation code?

The release code is the 20 digit code to unlock the map upgrade via USB stick. As soon as you insert a USB stick with maps newer than you have on the NBT, it will ask you if you wish to upgrade. At this point you need to enter the 20 digit code. If it accepts if will proceed with the upgrade (about 45 mins), otherwise it will reject it.

The code is different between versions so you will need a new code for the 2015-1 maps.

As promised, here is mini guide on how to extract your DE (NBT) or 1B (CIC) file, generate the FSC code.

The method I am using requires ESYS and ENET Cable, I am aware there are other ways to extract such as using SWID_Reader but those methods did not work for me.

Prequisites:
ESYS
ENET Cable
PSDZData Lite (lite version is fine for FDL coding, you only need the full package if you want to flash ECUs)
Token (not required to reach FSC Extended)

To get the esys and psdzdata files, goto the coding forum and send an email to shawnsheridan, he will PM you the links.

CIC PREMIUM 2014 Maps (19GB+ download):http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=893113

NBT NEXT 2015 Maps (19GB+ download): http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=995629

In the coding forum there is a sticky called BMW F30 3 Series Coding DIY - Code Auto Start Stop, DVD, Folding Mirrors, Etc. in the first page, there are guides on how to start up E-Sys.

if you are generating maps for NEXT then you need to follow the guide for DE
if you are generating maps for MOVE, MOTION or PREMIUM then you need to follow the guide for 1B

Extracting the DE or 1B file:
Fire up E-sys make sure your connected to the F20 (not F20_Direct) via your VIN and then in the left hand vertical menu select FSC Extended.

For NBT (DE File):
In the Parameter section enter:
1. Diagnostic Address (hex) = 0x63
2. Click on the Identify button and the Base variant HU_NBT will be populated
3. Application ID for NBT= 0xDE
4. Upgrade Index = 0x1

For CIC (1B File):
In the Parameter section enter:
1. Diagnostic Address (hex) = 0x63
2. Click on the Identify button and the Base variant HU_CIC will be populated
3. Application ID for NBT= 0x1B
4. Upgrade Index = 0x1

In the Action section:
5. Select Store FSC and move from left to the right
6. Click on the Read button
7. Click Save and and name the file in the following format XXXXXXX.fsc where XXXXXXX is last seven letters/numbers of your VIN or your donor NBT vin if you have retrofitted the NBT.
8. [Optional] You can now disconnect e-Sys from your car as the next stages can be performed offline.

Getting the Code Generation Software:
Unzip the directory attached. The directory can be placed/run from anywhere.

Generating the FSC code using the BMW_CIC_NBT_FSC_Generator for NBT:

If you are generating NBT, copy fsc.exe in the NBT_FSC directory to the tools directory

1. Place your XXXXXXX.fsc into your tools directory (same location as the Base64.exe)
2. Open a command prompt (DOS Screen) and go to the tools directory
3. Type "Base64 XXXXXXX.FSC XXXXXXX_000DE001.FSC" and press enter
4. Open BMW-FSC-NBT-Generator.exe
5. Click "Browse" and select the XXXXXXX_000DE001.FSC file you generated in step 3, it should be in your tools directory.
6. Choose your map product from the list (For me it was "Road Map EUROPE NEXT 2015-1)
7. Click "Generate"

Generating the FSC code using the BMW_CIC_NBT_FSC_Generator for CIC:

If you are generating CIC, copy fsc.exe in the CIC_FSC directory to the tools directory

1. Place your XXXXXXX.fsc into your tools directory (same location as the Base64.exe)
2. Open a command prompt (DOS Screen) and go to the tools directory
3. Type "Base64 XXXXXXX.FSC XXXXXXX_0001B001.FSC" and press enter
4. Open BMW-FSC-NBT-Generator.exe
5. Click "Browse" and select the XXXXXXX_0001B001.FSC file you generated in step 3, it should be in your tools directory.
6. Choose your map product from the list (Road Map EUROPE PREMIUM 2014-1)
7. Click "Generate"

Preparing the USB stick:
Takes about 45 mins to upload the Maps to your car; make sure you enter the code in CAPITALS, it has been said that you should have the car on/running during this period. But for me just pressing the Start button once was enough. Once the update is done, you will get a success message, wait a few minutes then turn the car on/off and then the version number will reflect the new map.

NBT

USB stick needs to be FAT32 (32GB is enough), when you extract the map data to the stick make sure you extract the folders to the USB root. The folders will be like:

1 (directory)
2 (directory)
3 (directory)
4 (directory)
config.nfm
NBT_ECE_101141.3.111.pkg
NBT_ECE_101141.3.111.pkg.sig


CIC

For the PREMIUM (CIC) maps you will have 3 directories:

USB1 (directory)
USB2 (directory)
USB3 (directory)


Copy the entire contents of USB1 to the root of the USB stick, should only be the following:

config.nfm
pkgdb (directory)


Once uploaded to the car, the car will ask for USB2. Delete the both the config.fm and pkgdb from the root and repeat the above with USB2....and then again with USB3.

Notes:
What happens when NEXT/Premium 2015-2 comes out?
You just need to edit the Lookup.xml file with the new map details, just look at the previous entries, its follows a sequence.

Backup your FSC file!!!
Save your XXXXXXX_000DE001.FSC file, you can now just refer to this file and generate as and when the new maps come along. If you lose this file you will need to do the extraction steps again.

Brilliant guide, but one daft question......where do you get the E-Sys software from? Is it a free download?
Thanks.

Awesome thanks - I will now order my ENET cable ready for the weekend attempt at uploading the maps. I did PM shawn the other day and he said he couldn't send me those details but will ask again.

Can I just ask when you say these are the pre-reqs PSDZData (not required), Token (not required) - are they pre-reqs for E-Sys and needed then or not ?

The token is not required to connect to the FSC Extended....I checked it last night before posting.

However I didn't think you needed PSDZdata as your not coding any ECU, however for completeness, maybe I should update the instructions just to get the lite version. Once you have the setup and you want to FDL code e.g. adding digital speedo, switching on fog light cornering lights, DRL lights on/off or acoustic alarm alert, it'll be there ready.

Thanks for checking, it all works fine in my head!

ENET cable ordered - will feedback in a few days if I am successful!

Sorry to go off topic a bit - how do you get a token in order to code? I would like to make my wing mirrors automatically fold in when I lock the car

Your wing mirrors will only fold if you have the electric mirror option. Have you tried holding down the lock button on your remote, it should auto folder the mirrors?

I can't post the email of the person (Tokenmaster aka Eli D.) who sells the token, the site just blanks out the name, so I've PM you the email instead.

Add the following together for Tokenmaster:

fxx
token
master

Many thanks for putting that up kitster. I have all the bits in your pre-reqs list needed for this, so time to have the balls to connect to the car

i’m having problems when i run the FSc Generator.exe - i get a Microsoft.NET Framework error saying i’m getting an unhandled exemption with the following error
“Road is an unexpected token Expecting White Space. Line 815, Position 75”

if i continue rather than quit, i can brows to my FSC file but the map list is empty. i suspect the lookup.xml table is screwy.
Any ideas?
Ive attached my FSC.001 file if anyone can help out.
Cheers

Your lookup.xml file has the incorrect double quotes for the 2015-1 entry. I've corrected and attached.

In the meantime, try this code: ********************
