I thought that timed tune commands do not work — I need a queue of timed 
commands.  I looked at the HDL for RFSoC and it appears the DDC in the ADC/DAC 
hard block does not have an external frequency control enabled.   How are timed 
tune requests implemented without this feature?

---------- Claude says: -------------
The Ettus USRP X440 lacks support for timed tuning on the RFSoC Numerically 
Controlled Oscillator (NCO). While commands are queued in the FPGA FIFO, timed 
frequency tuning cannot be executed. Below are the key constraints for handling 
timed commands and command queues on this device
Key Command Queue & Timing Constraints

  *   Timed Tuning Limitation: The X440 relies on direct-sampling of ADCs/DACs; 
timed tuning of the internal RFSoC NCO is not supported.

Hello Eugene,

timed commands are supported on the X440. Set the command time with 
set_command_time and then send the commands (set_rx_freq or set_tx_freq for 
freq tuning).

Best regards
Dennis Jurk

Why are timed commands (specifically freq tuning) not supported on the X440?  
The RFSoC definitely allows using FPGA (PL) logic to trigger cross-tile 
configurations.
