Command '1A-03' will do that.
250Hz filter is: 1A-03-04
3600Hz filter : 1A-03-40,14-07-01-50,14-08-01-50 (to shift 300Hz up
to avoid seeing 300Hz of the lower sideband).

In DM780:
Center and narrow:
#++
#
# {{RADIO-CONTROL
#
# This macro only contains commands for tuning your radio.
# The text is not added to the input (TX) window.
#
#--
center-on 1500
Set button-select 250 1 // 250 = On
Wide:
#++
#
# {{RADIO-CONTROL
#
# This macro only contains commands for tuning your radio.
# The text is not added to the input (TX) window.
#
#--
Set button-select 3600 1 // 3600 = On
('button-select 250 1' and 'button-select 3600 1' is CAT command
buttons defined in HRD as shown above)
