Issue updating firmware from CircuitBlocks on macOS

[imatasic]

macOS 13.4
CircuitBlocks 1.9.2

Pressing on Restore firmware throws out an error message

I have tested this with Wheelson and Jay-D
When connected to the computer, the serial port is shown cu.usbserial-14430/tty.usbserial-14430

nothing is shown on the device itself.
In the process, Jay-D blanks out the screen, but Wheelson doesn't even do that.

Please advise.
