Hello.

We think usualy that Mac can't run webupdater with manuel file.
In the Webupdater package, there is the application, and if we launch manualy with the Terminal, we can see options :
Code: Select all
       /unit ID=<unit_id>
                The device having specified Unit ID should be selected for
                processing. If only /unit flag is provided then it opens Web-
                Updater user interface with device having provided unit ID
                selected. Parameter "ID" is always required with /unit flag.

       /autorun [ USB | MassStorage ] [ "<file_path>" ]
                Installs software updates to the first detected device. This
                feature will auto-detect bin, rgn, and img files if they are in
                the same location as WebUpdater, and they conform to the naming
                convention. For any other types of files, "<file_path>" must
                be specified.
                For update to be auto-detected, it must have proper name. You
                can download an rgn file and rename it to the proper naming
                convention.
                For example: for file_name "041201000420.rgn", the number
                 041201000420 appears to be broken down like this:
                 • First 4 digits are the numbers after the letter in the part
                   number. ("0412" for part number 006-B0412-00)
                 • The next 5 numbers is min version number (So far "01000"
                   seems to work, but not sure if this comes from somewhere).
                 • The last 3 digits are the version number ("420" for
                   version 4.20)

       /upload_file rgn=<rgn_num> path="<image_file_location>"
                This option is used to copy map images (ex. gmapprom) to Garmin
                mode USB devices. "rgn" and "path" are required parameters
                with flag /upload_file.

       /debug  Enables debug message to go to Console.

       /h      Displays help for WebUpdater.


Probably /upload_file rgn=<rgn_num> path="<image_file_location>" is the good option. I try
with just /upload path="(my path)/GUPDATE.gcd" but it don't work.
I think I need add the rgn file. (both are required)
What is the RGN num ? I try 1859 (mine), I try like /autorun option suggested 185901000660, but I don't understand.

thanks.
