TelusTV-21T button in front
Anyone know what the button at the front of the tuner is for? And how to use it. Also there is a factory reset at the back. What does it do and how would you use it? Then there is a button on...
Telus only has a single model of TelusTV-21T that I'm aware of. That's the new Android TV based set top box. It looks like:
Pushing the button on the front turns my box on and off. If that button is obstructed before pairing the IR/Bluetooth remote that come swith the set top box, the box doesn't respond to IR signals from the remote.
The pairing button on the side is to pair Bluetooth accessories / devices like the Bluetooth TV remote that comes with that set top box. When I push that button on my set top box, it brings up a message that the box is looking for BT devices that are in pairing mode.
Mine does nothing when pressed.
However, having again a problem with rebooting afer a power glitch/outage I pressed and held front button and inserted power, continue to hold for some 15 seconds and a reboot screen shows on TV, let go and quick press starts a reboot. Have not figured out how to drop down the list of options.
This is a covuluted system that even when it works, it does not.

To access any of the settings for the set top box you need to use the remote itself. The older set top boxes also needed the remote to access the settings also.
When the newer boxes first turn on and it brings up all the random content on the screen, the settings can be found under the little gear icon in the top right of the screen. If you don't see that screen, tap the home button on the remote and then navigate up to the settings gear icon and hit OK.
