.. c:macro:: LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER

``int ioctl(int fd, LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER, __u32 *frequency)``

Arguments
=========

``fd``
    File descriptor returned by open().

``frequency``
    Frequency of the carrier that modulates PWM data, in Hz.

Description
===========

Set receive carrier used to modulate IR PWM pulses and spaces.

.. note::

   If called together with :ref:`LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE`, this ioctl
   sets the upper bound frequency that will be recognized by the device.

Return Value
============

On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
