50<para>This ioctl is used to set the generation of the continuous 22kHz tone.
51 This call requires read/write permissions.</para>
52<para>Usually, satellite antenna subsystems require that the digital TV
53 device to send a 22kHz tone in order to select between high/low band on
54 some dual-band LNBf. It is also used to send signals to DiSEqC equipment,
55 but this is done using the DiSEqC ioctls.</para>
56<para>NOTE: if more than one device is connected to the same antenna,
57 setting a tone may interfere on other devices, as they may lose
58 the capability of selecting the band. So, it is recommended that
59 applications would change to SEC_TONE_OFF when the device is not used.</para>
