Does anyone know if there is a way to get predictable phase offsets from an X410?  I am finding that from run-to-run, the 4 channels in an X410 have completely random phase offsets from each other.  I didn’t necessarily expect the phase offsets to be zero, but was hoping they would at least be consistent.

At the very least, use timed-commands to tune it.     The ZBX board that does the analog up/down conversion uses LMX2572   synthesizers, and I don't know how easy it is to phase-align those synthesizers in practice.

Hi Heath and Marcus, I was actually "R&D's plate" for this one. We worked through it and found the issue. The root cause is the startup sequence in almost every example UHD script is a bit out of order and had to be reorganized

Hi Heath and Marcus,

I was actually "R&D's plate" for this one. We worked through it and found the issue. The root cause is the startup sequence in almost every example UHD script is a bit out of order and had to be reorganized in terms of clock setup and synchronized channel tuning. This problem is fixed in UHD 4.7+ if you look at the "tx_waveforms.cpp" example code... For your application, just make sure to follow the same startup sequence.

Hope this helps,

Chris
