Bench Flashing help

I am trying to learn how to flash nbt evo unit to the latest version. I have a spare id4 unit to mess with and bench flashing harness, a zgw from an F10. I was able to get the unit up and running on the bench with a spare cid and idrive controller.

It seems i am able to fdl code using my esys setup through virtual machine and enet cable. However, i am trying to flash the nbt unit to upgrade to the latest i step and activate id5/id6 and full screen carplay.

From what i understand, i need to flash my cars vin to the nbt evo unit and flash the latest i step. However, i am not sure how to go about doing this. when connecting to esys, it thinks its connected to an f10 because of the vin in the zgw.
Do i need to flash my vin to zgw first and then to the nbt unit?
I have esys with psdzlite on a virtual machine running on a macbook pro.

I would like to set up a proper esys set up on a windows laptop. Can someone help me set up and provide some guidance on how to go about flashing the nbt unit with my bench set up.

fyi, i bought this on ebay and a used f10 zgw:
