Bluetooth Remote

[Matt28]

Can someone explain how to make my remote work via Bluetooth and not IR please?

Currently got the tv in front of the sky Q box while I decorate ready for the new tv and QUHD but it's a pain to control at the moment.

Thanks

Hi @Matt28Provided it is a Bluetooth remote (all Bluetooth remotes have a Microphone button for Voice control)

Note that Bluetooth control is only for the Q box.  All TV control is always by infrared.

Try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.

Depends on how old your remote is - it may not have BT anyway.

But holding 4&6 will switch modes.

EDIT: Or use the reset procedure as above...

Pretty sure my minis work over bluetooth. One of them is mounted behind a TV.
