I have two more notes on the steps outlined for game template download and install:
 
1. Upon dectecting your button not only will the screen notify you but the lights on the button will turn off.
2. Upon clicking send to program your button not only will the application notify you when complete but the button will turn off.
 
Then simply unplug the button, turn it on, then shuffle up and deal!
