  • Assists with importing and storing FSC sets for navigation, ConnectedDrive services and other licensed features when valid codes are available.
  • Provides tools to check head unit status, including component protection state and FSC acceptance information.
  • Helps with region and language changes on supported retrofits, for example converting vehicles between US, ECE and other markets where hardware and firmware permit.
  • Version 1.14 adds official Windows 11 support and updated handling for newer EVO I-levels according to the public change log.

Package contents
  • FemtoEVO.exe – main FemtoEVO v1.14 executable for NBT EVO / MGU configuration and FSC management.
  • How-To.pdf – concise usage guide from FemtoEVO with safety tips and basic operating instructions.

Compatibility notes
FemtoEVO is intended for professional and advanced users who already have a working BMW diagnostic and coding environment. It communicates with the head unit over an ENET or compatible diagnostic connection and expects a correctly configured NBT EVO or MGU installation.

Function availability depends on:
  • Head unit type (NBT EVO vs MGU) and installed firmware level (I-level).
  • Vehicle platform (F series, G series and some MINI models).
  • Availability of valid FSC sets or feature codes supplied by authorized vendors; this tool does not generate license data itself.
  • Existing retrofits such as CarPlay, navigation map region changes or ConnectedDrive services, where support can vary by hardware and country regulations.
Because of these factors, feature availability and results may differ from vehicle to vehicle. Always verify compatibility for a specific VIN and head unit before making changes.

Basic usage
  • Install FemtoEVO on a Windows PC that already has your BMW ENET/diagnostic setup configured.
  • Connect the PC to the vehicle using an ENET cable or supported interface and ensure stable battery support for the car.
  • Launch FemtoEVO, enter or detect the ZGW IP, then read the ECU VIN and head unit status.
  • When you have obtained a valid FSC set from your provider, use the appropriate functions in FemtoEVO to import and store those codes in the NBT EVO / MGU unit.
  • After writing changes, follow the How-To guide to verify feature status in the head unit menu and perform any recommended checks.
