Red face Technomate & Dragon Cam

HELP I have a technomate 1000 ci and have just bought a Dragon cam and loader card but can't get it to do anything.
I have a dynamate programmer and using the cas interface studio 8.3, when i insert the card and select the dragon card I get the following message. Dragon Card Loader recognized!
ATR : 3B 44 4C 44 30 30 30 30 is the loader card properly programmed,
or do I need to add files. and if I do where can I find them?

Thanks and any help will be very much appreciated.

Hi doggo2,
welcome to the forum.
You need to load Predator 364 onto your cam.
As you have a technomate receiver you have a choice of using your Dragon Cam or patching your receiver.
First you need to load predator364.dra onto your loader card.
Once done, tune your receiver to a FTA channel.
Turn off your receiver.
Insert your loader card into the Dragon cam, chip facing upwards.
If not already, insert you Dragon Cam into your receiver.
Turn on your receiver.
Navigate to the cams menu, using your receivers remote control.
Select yes to load module.
Wait until the cam is fully loaded, and you will see a message, Please remove your loader card.
Remove your loader card.
Turn off your receiver.
Turn on your receiver ands start viewing the available channels.
If you have any problems please post back.

Predator 364 is the firmware for the Dragon Cam and is freely available. Just type predator364 into a search engine and you should soon locate it.

One more thing Mickha I have a fixed dish pointing to the astra satellite on 19.2deg. Will the cam decode the premier portal for the football 3:00pm KOs?. I had the technomate patched but had to keep updating it and I am hoping that is all over now

Currently Predator 364 is AU on Premiere, but no doubt Premiere are trying to combat this, but manually entering the new keys only takes a few seconds.
