Congratulations on your purchase of the 24912
Universal Remote Control. The 24912 is one of the
most easy to use remote controls available today.
With the 24912, juggling multiple remote controls
is a thing of the past! Your 24912 controls up to
three devices, including the most popular brands
of TV, DVD, DVR, CBL, and SAT. The 24912 is
easy to use, easy to program, and it gives you total
control—at the touch of your ngertips!
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 nd 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.

example) you want to store a DVR code under

Entry (previous page) and press CABLE in step 2
of Direct Code Entry, then enter ANY DVR code in
step 3 of Direct Code Entry. Then follow the steps
above for Code Search.
Note: Code Search starts from the currently
stored 4-digit number under that mode. Sometimes
the rst 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 Identication
The Code Identication Feature allows you to

The red indicator blinks once and

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 rst
digit in your code.
5. To nd the second digit, repeat step 4, this
time when the red indicator blinks off this is the
second digit.
6. Repeat step 4 to nd the third and fourth digits.

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/DVR, TV/DVD,
DVR/DVD, 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.
DVR/DVD Punch-Through
This remote allows the 6 DVR 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 DVR, or DVD programmed Mode you used.
This feature will not operate if the programmed
TV, SAT or Cable code has its own DVR transport
button control, e.g., a TV Combo, DVR/SAT, etc.
