Yesterday I succesfully connected 4 wiimotes (2 original and 2 third party) and a balance board.
Also tested with motion plus adapter. It's excellent!

If I’ll be honest, impatience got the better of me and I wired my own but I’m rooting for this project. Hell, I may even buy it to support it, even though I already have the functionality, if the price is right.

Hell, I may even buy it to support it, even though I already have the functionality, if the price is right. I would try to do my own adapter, but i don't know how to wire the module to an usb. (I know there's some images and diagrams in this post, but none of them is too clear for a electronic-rookie like me xD) so, if the dolphin's team or one of his devs are planning to made and sell one. I'll buy two or three for my entire's gaming life.
While i´m waiting to the dolphin´s official usb bluetooth module, i purchased the items to made my own.
Please, could anyone help me to wire the components using paint with different colors for each cable? (Image attached) Thanks a lot 01-03-2018, 02:36 AM
Please check first if you can figure it out by looking at this diagram. It's the best I've seen. You can ignore the connections to the switch if you don't plan to use it. It does the function of the red button in front of the Wii console. I did not wire one in because you can pair wiimotes through the dolphin controller setup screen but I see that you bought one so you probably do want to wire it in.
The challenge here is doing the soldering...

I checked the diagram posted in the forums, and i have one doubt with the ground connection, my model of bluetooth is the right one in the first post image, and i don´t know if i need to wire the ground too with the upper point (Image attached) If the answer is "yes"... i must use the two ground points in my regulator? Or i only need to wire both points in the same ground of my regulator... Thank you 01-03-2018, 07:34 AM

Depending on the type of regulator you have, you'll either have both of its grounds being equivalent or you'll have to use its output ground to feed the Bluetooth module instead of letting it share the input ground. You're probably best off skimming the datasheet for the regulator.

You're probably best off skimming the datasheet for the regulator. Sorry, but i don´t know much of electronics, and all this is a bit messy for me. This is my regulator: https://www.amazon.co.uk/XCSOURCE%C2%AE-...B00SR4FC0E And this is the specs: Input: DC 4.5V-7V (Input Voltage must be Greater than the Output voltage high above 1V) Output: 3.3 V, 800mA( load current cannot exceed 800ma)
As i see in the image that "mrkazador" posted, (Image attached) all the grounds of the bluetooth adapter are joined in the upper ground of the regulator, and the ground of the usb (Black cable) are joined with the lower ground of the regulator. (His regulator looks very similar as mine)
Then, i only want to know two things: - If i need to do the same he do, the ground of the usb to one of the regulator, and all the ground points of the bluetooth to the other one of the regulator. - And if the upper black circle of the bluetooth adapter i purchased (The right one of the image in the first post) is a second ground of the bluetooth adapter or only has one. Thanks, and sorry for all this brick. |
