Note:
Any change to the encryption status on the receiver (enabling/disabling
encryption) requires a sync to send the settings to the transmitter. New
encryption keys for the transmitter and receiver channel are generated
on every IR sync, so to request a new key for a transmitter, perform an IR
sync with the desired receiver channel.
