Can the Dolphinbar damage the Wiimotes?

Sry for my bad english but i don't know another german forums where it's allowed to talk about emulators. I try to explain my problem.

I bought the Mayflash Sensorbar to connect the TR-Wiimotes via Bluetooth with the PC. I updated the Sensorbar to the newest version und the connection with the TR-Wiimote works fine. But here is my problem. I connected an old wiimote with the Motion Plus Adapter and the connection worked fine but after leaving the Controller 1h withouth Inputs the controller lost connection to the sensorbar. Since then the controller is not able to connect with the sensorbar. I've tried anything to solve that problem but nothing helps. I also tried to reset the controller with these instructions:

I also tried to connect the controller to the wii but this didn't work too.


Can someone help me? Please try to write in simple english for me or in english with german translation (not with googletranslate). But only if you speak german.

This might seem pretty basic and a bit patronising, but you have checked the batteries haven't gone flat, right? Unlike the Wii, Dolphin and the DolphinBar don't automatically turn off Wiimotes that aren't being used, so then they can go flat when left. It could even be that there's enough power to light up the Wiimote's lights, but not enough to make a strong bluetooth signal.

I checked the batteries but they still got enough power. I also try another batteries. I used the same batteries i used for the TR-Wiimote. In the TR-Wiimote the batteries still work fine. The batteriestatus show three lines.

The weird thing on this problem is that the led 1 of the old Wiimote still shine after the they lost connection. But after removing the batteries and puting them back in the batteries only blink.

What happens when you try to sync the wiimote back to the Wii?

It's also not able to connect the wiimote back to the Wii. Before this problem appear i synced the wiimote many times with the wii, with my pc via bluetoothstick and the mayflash dolphinbar. If i try now to sync the wiimote with the pc via bluetooth the wiimote will displayed in the system control from windows as unknown device and not as Nintendo RVLCNT01.

I'm affraid that the wiimote is broken.

Now i use the TR-Wiimote to play Zelda Skyward Sword but i'm afraid that the TR-Wiimote suffers the same fate when i use it with the dolphinbar.

Because I noticed something like this before, I have to ask... Are you using 1+2 to sync or are you using the Sync button? If you are using 1+2 then it will only work with the last device you synced with using the Sync button (at least, that's the case when switching between my DolphinBar and Wii U). I'm fairly certain pressing 1+2 only works with bluetooth dongles without first using Sync. It's very unlikely that the DolphinBar sent signals to your wiimote telling it to kill itself. I switch between bluetooth dongle, DolphinBar, and Wii-U all the time and the Sync button works every time as long as I also hit the Sync button on the DolphinBar or Wii-U.

I used both methods. But one reason because i think the wiimote is broken ist because the wiimote displayed in the system control from windows as unknown device and not as Nintendo RVLCNT01 as it displayed before. Before i tried to resync the wiimote i deleted the saved "Nintendo RVLCNT01" device from the device manager. I know how to sync the controller to the dolphinbar, the wii and a bluetooth dongle. It worked fine many time before and it works still fine with the TR-Wiimote.


Maybe the wiimote is simply broken and this has nothing to do with the dolphinbar.
