Key Type
Encryption Keys
The DCHR generates high entropy encryption keys to
sync with encryption-capable transmitters and receiv-
ers. The user must select a key type and create a key
in the DCHR, and then sync the key with a transmitter
or another receiver (only in shared key mode).
Encryption Key Management
The DCHR has four options for encryption keys:
• Volatile: This one-time only key is the highest
level of encryption security. The Volatile Key exists
only as long as the power in both the DCHR and
the encryption capable transmitter remains on
during a single session. If an encryption capable
transmtter is powered off, but the DCHR has
remained turned on, the Volatile Key must be sent
to the transmitter again. If the power is turned off
on the DCHR, the entire session concludes and a
new Volatile Key must be generated by the DCHR
and sent to the transmitter via the IR port.
• Standard: Standard Keys are unique to the
DCHR. The DCHR generates the Standard Key.
The DCHR is the sole source of the Standard Key,
and because of this, the DCHR may not receive
(get) any Standard Keys.
• Shared: There are an unlimited number of
shared keys available. Once generated by the
DCHR and transferred to an encryption capable
transmitter/receiver, the encryption key is avail-
able to be shared (synced) with other encryption
capable transmitters/receivers via the IR port.
When the DCHR is set to this key type, a menu
item named SEND KEY is available to transfer the
key to another device.
• Universal: This is the most convenient encryp-
tion option available. All encryption-capable
Lectrosonics transmitters and receivers contain
the Universal Key. The key does not have to be
generated by the DCHR. Simply set a Lectroson-
ics encryption capable transmitter and the DCHR
to Universal, and the encryption is in place. This
allows for convenient encryption amongst multiple
transmitters and receivers, but not as secure as
creating a unique key.
NOTE: When the DCHR is set to Universal
Encryption Key, Wipe Key and Share Key will not
appear in the menu.
