Congratulations on your purchase of the 24938
Universal Remote Control. The 24938 is one of the
most easy to use remote controls available today.
With the 24938, juggling multiple remote controls is
a thing of the past! Your 24938 controls up to four
devices, including the most popular brands of TV, VCR,
DVD, CBL, and SAT. The 24938 is easy to use, easy to
program, and it gives you total control—at the touch
of your fingertips!
Note: Some functions from your original remote may
not be controlled by this remote. Use the original
remote, if available, to control such functions.
Sometimes buttons other than described in these
instructions may actually perform the function. For
example, the CHAN and VOL buttons might be used
to navigate through menu choices. We recommend
you experiment with the remote to identify if such
situations pertain to your equipment.

Battery Installation
1. On the back of the remote, push down on the tab
and lift the cover off.
2. Match the batteries to the + and - marks inside the
battery case, then insert 2 AAA Alkaline batteries.
3. Press the battery cover back into place.
Battery Saver
Your remote automatically turns off if the buttons
are depressed more than 30 seconds. This will save
your batteries should your remote get stuck in a place
where the buttons remain depressed (e.g., between
the sofa cushions).
Code Saver
You will have up to 10 minutes to change the
batteries in your remote without losing codes you
have programmed. However, do not press any
buttons until batteries are installed in the remote. If
buttons are pressed without batteries in the remote,
all codes will be lost.
Code Setup
The SETUP button is used to setup the remote. You
can either setup the remote using the code tables (on
separate sheet), or you can search through the library
of codes until you find a code that works for your
product. Please refer to “ Code Search” on page 7 for
more information on using the code search feature to
learn how to search through the library of codes for
your products.
NOTE: You can store any kind of code under any
mode (except TV). I.E. you can store a DVR code
under the CBL/SAT button, or a Cable code under the
DVD/DVR button, etc. However, you can only store TV
codes under the TV button.

Code Search
If your device does not respond after you have tried
all the codes for your brand, or if your brand is not
listed, try searching for your code by following these
steps.
1. Manually turn on the device (TV, DVR, etc.) to be
controlled.
2. Press and hold the SETUP button until
the red indicator stays on, then release
the SETUP button.
3. Press and quickly release the desired
device button (TV, DVR, etc.). The red
indicator blinks off once.
4. Press the ON•OFF button repeatedly
(up to 300 times) until the device

indicator blinks off with each button
press.
Most users will store VCR codes under the VCR button,
Cable codes under CABLE, etc. If (for example) you
want to store a VCR code under CABLE, first follow
the procedure for Direct Code Entry (previous page)
and press CABLE in step 2 of Direct Code Entry, then
enter ANY VCR code in step 3 of Direct Code Entry.
Then follow the steps above for Code Search.
Note: Code Search starts from the currently stored
four digit number under that mode. Sometimes the
first code that “works” with your device may only
allow limited functionality (e.g. the MENU button
might not work). There may be a code that performs
more functions. Continue the code search process
until the best code is found.
5. Press and release ENTER to install the
code.

Using Your Remote
Code Identification
The Code Identification Feature allows you to identify
the four digit library code stored under your device
button. For example, if you want to find out what
four digit code is stored under your TV device button,
follow the six steps below:
1. Press and hold the SETUP button until
the red indicator stays on. Release the
SETUP button.
2. Press and release the desired device
button (TV, DVR, etc.). The red
indicator blinks, then stays lit.

red indicator blinks once and remains lit.
4. To find the first digit for
the code stored under
the device button
pressed in step 2, press
each numeric button
from 0-9 in turn. The
number that causes
the indicator light to
blink is the first digit in
your code.
5. To find the second digit, repeat step 4.
6. Repeat step 4 to find the third and fourth digit.

Controlling Devices with Separate Power
On and Off Buttons
Some GE, RCA and ProScan models require you to
press the device button for more than one second to
turn the device on and the ON•OFF button to turn the
device off.
Controlling Combo Devices
Some Combo devices (e.g. TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR,
etc.) will require you to set up two different Mode
buttons to control both parts of the Combo device.
For example, if you have a TV/DVD Combo, you might
need to set up one code under the TV button to
control the TV part AND a separate code (under any
other Mode button) to control the DVD part.
VCR/DVD Punch-Through
This remote allows the 6 VCR transport buttons
(i.e. PLAY, PAUSE, STOP, FF, REWIND, and REC) to
Punch-Through control from any Mode programmed
with TV, SAT or Cable codes to the last VCR, or DVD
programmed Mode you used. This feature will not
operate if the programmed TV, SAT or Cable code has
its own VCR transport button control e.g. a TV Combo,
SAT/PVR, etc.
