    Sends the "Set protocol options" command to the device to specify options
    related to how the device processes commands and sends responses.
    The options are also saved in this object and are used later
    when sending other commands or reading responses.
 
    When CRC for commands is enabled, this library generates the CRC
    byte and appends it to the end of each command it sends.  The Motoron
    checks it to help ensure the command was received correctly.
 
    When CRC for responses is enabled, this library reads the CRC byte sent
    by the Motoron in its responses and makes sure it is correct.  If the
    response CRC byte is incorrect, get_last_error() will return a non-zero
    error code after the command has been run.
 
    When the I2C general call address is enabled, the Motoron receives
    commands sent to address 0 in addition to its usual I2C address.
    The general call address is write-only; reading bytes from it is not
    supported.
 
    By default (in this libary and the Motoron itself), CRC for commands and
    responses is enabled, and the I2C general call address is enabled.
 
    This method always sends its command with a CRC byte, so it will work
    even if CRC was previously disabled but has been re-enabled on the device
    (e.g. due to a reset).
