My Sky Q box is always standby

Sky Q box stuck in standby. The only way I can get it out of standby is bar plugged in the box and turning on by the plug.

 

And the next day it's still stuck on standby and can't be turned on by the remote all the buttons on the box it needs to be depowered then powered up. It's always like this even when I do a factory reset it's still the same
