+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call starts a tuning operation using specified parameters.
+The result of this call will be successful if the parameters were valid
+and the tuning could be initiated. The result of the tuning operation in
+itself, however, will arrive asynchronously as an event (see
+documentation for :ref:`FE_GET_EVENT <FE_GET_EVENT>` and
+FrontendEvent.) If a new :ref:`FE_SET_FRONTEND <FE_SET_FRONTEND>`
+operation is initiated before the previous one was completed, the
+previous operation will be aborted in favor of the new one. This command
+requires read/write access to the device.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+
+int ioctl(int fd, int request =
+:ref:`FE_SET_FRONTEND <FE_SET_FRONTEND>`, struct
+dvb_frontend_parameters *p);
