Technomate TM-5402 HD M3 (hidden menu help)

Help please
I recently purchased a Technomate TM-5402 HD M3
I am trying to access the “biss key” menu with the remote control
However when I enter 8280 it doesn’t show me the hidden biss key menu
The TM-5402 M3 has S/W version 1.10 (Feb 10 2015) with H/W version1.00 and boot version 3.0
Any ideas please
Thanks very much.
:)

Make sure patch is active, go to system Info- you should see 2 boxes CAS menu and Biss menu if not press 2004 on remote and they should show.
Other way to see if patched, sw version in system info will have 146p non patch does not have the P after the number.
Any 3 digit number followed by letter P is patched SW

Edit jun 2024
146p is last ever patch

I have an Icecrypt 1600 which gives trouble . It freezes after about half an hour. I can switch it off and restart it but the time before freezing gets shorter . I suspect a faulty component overheating. I bought a Technomate TM-5402 to use instead , but in spite of trying to patch it , I can't get it to work on Intelsat 907. Is there any possibility of downloading the software from the Icecrypt and loading it into the Technomate ?

No that is not possible but you can get the TM to work by using my channel list here:-

Then load the latest keys if this is not possible then follow the instructions in this thread on patching your receiver.

Patch 1.46p is the best patch in my opinion for the TM5402HD M3,

I've uploaded the patch into the Technomate and it has certainly done something because when I did a new scan it picked up the UK channels which it could not do before. My problem now is I cannot open a menu to add the codes . How can I overcome this problem please ?

I am no expert but I would first make sure the patch is loaded correctly - Press menu and then System information look at s/w version and it should p after the number.

You will also see cas menu and biss menu at the bottom - You could also just go onto the channel what you want to watch and press 8280 on your remote (this will bring up the Biss menu)

Good luck

My version is M3. I think the problem might be that I have not loaded the addon 002 , but although I've followed links I can't find it.

There is no p after the number . Could this be because I have not uploaded the addon 002 . The reason I have not done that is I have failed to find it in spite of attempts using the links above.

I loaded the patch into the receiver which has allowed it to pick up the channels. I have not been able to load the addon 002 because I can't find it. Is this why I can't open the menu to introduce the BISS keys?

M3 does not require the 002 addon as it is built in.
Patch wont let channels scan it any more than official fw will.
Unless you have P after sw number then it's not patched.
ie 145P or 146P.
