Latest patch and keys for TM-5400+USB Super Box

[humans first]

Can any of you good fellows tell me which is the latest patch and softcam keys for my Technomate TM-5400+USB Super + box? I attempted to load a magicpatch but it said it the file was incompatible and I'm struggling to watch footy.

Confirmed. I have the same model TM-5400 CI + Super+USB+ and thats the latest patch for it.

Oh shit - loaded that patch but when the process completed the box switched itself off and wont come back on again. Help!

do a forced download with an rs232 null modem cable connected between the stb and your computer.
use the loader I"m sending.
turn off stb by the rear switch,unzip loader and open.and browse for and load unzipped patch click on connect then turn stb back on.wait for sending,erasing,writing and finish,box should re-boot and work.keep trying if it doesnt work 1st time if it still wont work either try another patch or official s/ware.

PS. I notice in your 1st post that you tried to load an incompatable file double check your model only the correct patch for your model will load.

Dick. Really appreciate your help mate. After a few failed attempts I managed to connect my computer to the box via a USB serial convertor and an rs232 null cable. I downloaded the loader - identified the correct patch for my box - connected via com port 3 to the box - turned the box on - then the LED lights on the box started to flash continously (which was different as before only a couple of lights appeared for a couple of seconds when I switched on the box)

Problem was that the file failed to load and the message on the display remained as Sending 0%.

I tried again - this time the box displayed three zeros and 4 horizontal flashing dashes on the LHS - different - but still the message on the display remained as Sending 0%. I left it for c20 mins (didn't want to be accused of being impatient) but still the file didn't send.

I'll keep trying - but if you can spot any obvious defect in my method please advise

hello mate,yeah I"ve never actually had any trouble loading.and my IT skills are not very good but have you tried changing the com port to 1 or auto.

[humans first]

Yes tried all the com ports only port 3 worked. This is really frustrating. Don't want to be forced to buy another box either - they aint cheap!

I"m sure it can be salvaged have you access to a computer with an rs232 port,how many times have you tried with the official software no point in waiting too long as it should load in a couple of minutes.

The missus is not happy. She think (probably quite rightly) that I've buggared up the box because I'm greedy. She only wants it to watch TVE Internation (Spanish channel) but I want footy!

Managed to get up to 12% loaded then it stops. Changed to COM port 1 - no difference. Went to Maplins and they checked out the cable and said it was fine. (it's 3m long but don't think that should be a problem)

Frankly - I think I'm doomed - the missus will dock my pocket money to pay for a new one. Can anyone rescue this hampered husband?

[dick b]

Cheers for the offer fella - but milton keynes to west yorks is a bit of a trek.

[chappaqua]
