Congratulations on your purchase of the 20622 Universal Remote
Control. The 20622 is one of the most easy to use remote controls
available today. With the 20622, juggling multiple remote controls
is a thing of the past! Your 20622 controls up to four devices,
including the most popular brands of TV, VCR, DVD, CBL, and SAT.
The 20622 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.

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.

Using Your Remote

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.
3. Press and release the SETUP button. The 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.

11
Volume/Mute Control and Punch-Through
This remote lets you select which device Mode controls your
Volume/Mute buttons. The remote is initially set for all device
Modes to use their own Volume/Mute control if present. If the
programmed code has no Volume/Mute operation of its own then
those buttons will punch-through control to the TV Mode device
without needing to change to TV Mode.
Any Mode chosen for Volume/Mute control MUST have its own
Volume/Mute function or the Volume/Mute buttons will do
nothing.
Setting ALL Volume/Mute Control to any one Mode
This routine can set all Modes to “punch-through” to any one
chosen Mode for Volume/Mute button control without the needing
to change to that Mode.
1. Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator
turns on, then release the button.
2. Press and hold the MUTE button until the red indicator
blinks off, then release the button.
3. Press and release the desired Mode button (TV, VCR,
etc.) for Volume/Mute control, the red indicator blinks
then stays on.
4. Press and release the MUTE button and the red
indicator turns off. The red indicator will blink rapidly
for three seconds if the Mode you have selected has
no Volume/Mute control.
All other Modes will now punch-through to your chosen
Mode for Volume/Mute control.

Setting any Mode to use its own Volume/Mute Control
This routine can set any Mode to use only its own
Volume/Mute control. Note - If your chosen Mode has
no Volume/Mute functions of its own then the Volume/
Mute buttons will do nothing.
1. Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator
turns on, then release the button.
2. Press and hold the MUTE button until the red
indicator blinks off, then release the button.
3. Press and release the desired Mode button (TV, VCR,
etc.), the red indicator blinks then stays on.
4. Press and release the VOLUME- (Down) button, the
red indicator blinks then stays on.
