Real Wiimote doesn't see working sensor bar - BurntFaceMan - 10-14-2014

Hello!

I successfully added my Wii Mote Plus as a real Wii Mote by following this tutorial:

https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Wii_Remote_Plus_%28RVL-CNT-01-TR%29_Connection_Guide

Everything works fine so far, and I can use the Wii Mote Plus ingame like it would be a real Wii console.

Only problem: no pointer.
I tried it with several games.
And it's not like the pointer accidently is invisible - the Wii Mote Plus seems to ignore the working Sensor bar.

I use a original Nintendo Sensor bar, which is connected to a running Wii U.
The Sensor bar is working 100% - I double checked it.

While the Wii Mote that is conencted to the PC and Dolphin can't see it (Or doesn't react to it), another Wii Mote conected to the Wii U can see the Sensor bar at the same moment and interact with it without any interruption.


What could the problem/solution might be?

Greetings

EDIT: Ok the Wii U deactivated the sensor bar when the ii mote was disconencted.
Solution: Go into Wii mode and press home button to make that overlayappear.
Now you can disconnect the Wii mote and the sensor stays on.
