+**************************
+
+Name
+====
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER - Set carrier used to modulate IR receive.
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER, __u32 *frequency )
+ :name: LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER
+
+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
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
