- under "commands" tab need to ConfigLclsTimingV1. this controls a multiplexer that routes the evr clock/data to the fpga, either from lcls1 or lcls2
- under "variables" tab GtLoopback 0 is normal mode, 2 is internal loopback which includes EVG simulator sending some opcodes, 4 is a later loopback as described on page 85 of Xilinx ug576 guide https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/user_guides/ug576-ultrascale-gth-transceivers.pdf
- mmcm is like a souped-up old dcm (digital clock manager) able to generate many more frequencies using, with jitters ~25ps (comparable to a standard external oscillator)
- each of qsfp1 input 2 (counting from 0) can only accept lcls1 timing (static) and input 3 can only accept lcls2 timing, or vice versa. Possibly it's switched, but I don't think so.
- in "variables" tab TimeToolDev->HW->TimingCore->EvrCore, sofCount/eofCount/FidCount should all increment at 360Hz if things are working.
