Intro

This tutorial will give you step by step instructions on how to connect a WiiMote to your computer. The same steps are taken to connect multiple WiiMotes to your computer.

Step 1) Open BlueSoleil
Step 2) Familiarize yourself with the BlueSoleil Interface
Step 3) Press the 1 and 2 button on the WiiMote so all four of the lights blink
Step 4) While the lights are blinking on the WiiMote click on the orange sphere in the BlueSoleil program (Similar to the picture in Step 2) to find the WiiMote. If the WiiMote was not found or if the WiiMote lights are not blinking just repeat Step 3 and follow Step 4 again. Once the orange sphere is clicked, it should find a device similar to the following picture.
Step 5) While the lights are still blinking on the WiiMote double click the newly found device and you should find a device similar to the following picture. If the lights are not blinking on the WiiMote just repeat Step 3 and follow Step 5 again.
