Clock Programming SCUI
External clocks can be programmed with the System Controller GUI (SCUI) application
For a ZCU1275 board, the SCUI can be found at: https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/zcu1275.html#documentation
For a ZCU111 board, the SCUI can be found at: https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/zcu111.html#documentation

ZCU111 Board Setup
Connect the JTAG cable Connect DAC 229 Tile 1 Channel 3 to ADC 224 Tile 0 Channel 0
An optional filter can be used.
Generate/Acquire waveforms as per slide 6 to 10
With the above connection in place (as shown in the picture below), DAC tile 1 channel 3 is connected to ADC tile 0 channel 0 (see next slide)
