+# Aion EVB Initialisation
+
+This section provides guidance on how to successfully setup and initialise the Aion Evaluation Board and accompanying Interposer Board. We require the Aion Eval Board to provide the External BSYNC signals to each of the Triton Development Platforms. Triton is setup to operate at 26.4 Gbps JESD rate so this requires 12.5 MHz BSYNC frequency to be set (26.4 Gbps / 66 / 32x decimation = 12.5 MHz).
+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+For a deep dive on the EVAL-ADF4030, we suggest you review the product home page, the link is shared at the bottom of this page.
+
+As shown in the picture below, we require five connections to the EVAL-ADF4030 & SDP-K1 control board and ADF4030 Interposer Board: 
+- On the SDP-K1:
+  - There is a USB-C connection which needs to be connected to the control PC
+  - This will allow the Python software to control the system
+
+
+- On the EVAL-ADF4030, we will connect:
+  - 10MHz REF_CLK from the Signal Generator supplying the 400MHz to the Triton Platforms
+    (this can be the 10MHz_REF BNC from the rear of most signal generators)
+  - 12V DC Input using the supplied DC Adaptor with the evaluation kit
+  - BSYNC_1 will be connected to CLK_4 on the Interposer Board using the supplied Twinax cables with the evaluation kit
+  - BSYNC_3 will be connected to CLK_5 on the Interposer Board using the supplied Twinax cables with the evaluation kit
+  - To ensure the communication to the EVAL-ADF4030 is correct, ensure the dip switches are setup as shown in the image below
+

+```
+
+## Software Requirements
+
+At the time of writing, the software associated with this demo is not for general release and is therefore not on the public ADI PyIIO repo.
+
+The software to setup the Aion Eval Board, can be found at the following link [ADF4030 Python Eval Source](https://github.com/adi-innersource/bfg-py-scripts)
+
+The following are the steps to install the software correctly:
+
+- Create a directory on your control PC (assuming Windows), e.g. C:\ADF4030_Eval_Control
+
+- Using your preferred GIT control software, clone the repo from the link above using the following command:
+  - *git clone https://github.com/adi-innersource/bfg-py-scripts.git*
+
+- Using your preferred Python IDE, open the *bfg-py-scripts-main* folder:
+  - Navigate to *\iio_scripts\adf4030\delay* in a terminal
+  - Open the following script ahead of execution --> *adf4030_delay_test.py*
+  - There are a few edits needed ahead of execution:
+    - **Line 15:** The default Comm Port for the SDP-K1 board is COM8, you need to ensure this aligns with your Control PC by checking the Device Manager
+    - **Line 26:** The *ref_freq* should be changed from the default 125e6 to the required 10e6 (10 MHz) which we are supplying from the Signal Generator
+    - **Lines 32/33:** Both the *bsync_freq* parameters should be edited from the 100e6 default to the required 12.5e6 for this setup
+    - **Line 37:** The second channel to be configured should be Channel 3, not the default 2
+    - **Line 41:** The *tdc_measurement* variable should be changed from the default 2 to 3, so we are measuring on the required BSYNC_3 channel
+    - **Line 47:** The channel to align should be changed from default 2 to the required 3
+    - **Line 48:** The *single_ch_alignment* variable should be changed from default 2 to the required 3
+    - **Line 50:** The *tdc_measurement* should be changed from the default 2 to the required 3
+  - The Python software is now configured to align BSYNC_1 and BSYNC_3 outputs
+
+- Ahead of execution, there is a final modification that is needed to the SDP-K1 board, the firmware needs to be updated to support this mode.
+  - The firmware file, can be found in zip format in the *bfg-py-scripts\sdp-k1_bin* directory
+  - Unzip this file which will present *adf4030.bin* file
+  - Open a Windows Explorer window on the Control PC and you should see a SDP-K1 D: Drive present
+  - The *adf4030.bin* file should be dragged to this D: drive and this will update the firmware on the SDP-K1 board
+  - You can monitor the SDP-K1 board and observe a flashing Orange LED during the update process and then the board will reset
+  - Finally, you should press the reset button on the SDP-K1 board before moving to the next step
+
+## Python Code Execution
+
+- Now that the Python software is modified to align to our hardware configuration and the SDP-K1 firmware is updated, we are in a position to run the script
+  - In Python IDE terminal, run the following command:
+    *python -m iio_scripts.adf4030.delay.adf4030_delay_test*
+  - This will first measure the delay between BSYNC_1 and BSYNC_3 ports of the ADF4030 Evaluation Board and it will report the delay in fsec, highlighted in red below
+  - The user will then be prompted to press Enter to align these channels
+  - Once aligned, the updated and aligned delta will be printed on the console with a passing delay of less than 1000 fsec, as highlighted in green below
+
+**Aion BSYNC_1 and BSYNC_3 Alignment:**
+```{image} images/dual-triton-mcs-aion-bsync-1-3-alignment.png
+:width: 700px
+:align: center
+```
+```{attention}
+ The Aion EVB and Interposer Board is now configured as needed and you can move to the Triton Initialization steps

+# Dual Triton MultiChip Sync (MCS) Pilot Overview
+
+This section provides the steps required to setup the Dual Triton MCS Demo, which consists of two 16T/16R Triton Development Platforms and a [**Aion (ADF4030) Evaluation Board**](https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/eval-adf4030.html). The pilot demonstrates the usage of the Aion sync device to align the BSYNCs from the EVAL-ADF4030 and have these drive each Triton as external BSYNC inputs. The pilot then has the Leader Triton transmit a DAC signal and loop it back into one of its own ADCs and also send it to an ADC on the Follower Triton. The ADC data from both platforms are then post processed and the delay calculated to demonstrate accuracy of +/-5 picoseconds.

+## Block Diagram

+The figure below provides a high level block diagram of the required connections for the system as well as the PMOD connections required for triggering of the system.

+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+The following hardware is needed to successfully setup this pilot:
+- 2 x [Triton Development Platforms](https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/adxband16ebz.html)
+- 1 x [Aion (ADF4030) Evaluation Platform + Interposer Board](https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/eval-adf4030.html)
+- 2 x [Xilinx/AMD VCU118 FPGA Board](https://www.amd.com/en/products/adaptive-socs-and-fpgas/evaluation-boards/vcu118.html)
+- 1 x RF Signal Generator supporting up to 400MHz as a reference frequency for each Triton
+- 1 x RF Power Splitter to distribute the 400MHz to each Triton [2-Way Power Splitter 0.5 - 600MHz (Mini-Circuits)](https://www.minicircuits.com/WebStore/dashboard.html?model=Z99SC-62-S%2B)
+- 1 x RF Power Splitter to distribute the DAC Transmission at X-Band to the Leader & Follower ADC's [4-Way Power Splitter 500 - 26500 MHz (Mini-Circuits)](https://www.minicircuits.com/WebStore/dashboard.html?model=ZC4PD-5R263-S%2B)
+
+## Software Requirements
+
+As there are two Triton Platforms used in this pilot, one as a Leader and the other a Follower, we need to load these with two different HDL images.
