Sky Q Remote setup for 2 remote controls

It is possible to have 2 Sky Q Remote controls, One in Bluetooth Mode - this one will enable voice control
The other in Infared mode - this one will not have voice control
To use TV volume on both remotes proceed as follows.

Set the first remote (The one you do not need voice sontrol) as normal by pairing as follows
Make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the remote led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
Check that it works the TV.
Then press and hold 4 & 6 together until the remote led flashes.
This will disconnect the Bluetooth so that the remote will control the Q box by infrared and TV volume by infrared.
There will be no Voice control on this remote.

Then on the second remote (The one you want voice control) completely reset the 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 remote led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
You will have voice control on this remote.

If you change any of the batteries you will need to reprogram your remote controls again
