It is also used to send signals to DiSEqC equipment, but +this is done using the DiSEqC ioctls. + +.. attention:: If more than one device is connected to the same antenna, + setting a tone may interfere on other devices, as they may lose the + capability of selecting the band. So, it is recommended that applications + would change to SEC_TONE_OFF when the device is not used. + +Return Value +============ + +On success 0 is returned. + +On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set +appropriately. + +Generic error codes are described at the +:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter. |
