SYNCCNT |
R |
0x1 |
Synchronize Start
0x0 = Timer is not capable of synchronizing the counter value with other GPTimers.
0x1 = Timer is capable of synchronizing the counter value with other Timers.

CHAIN |
R |
0x1 |
Chain with Other Timers.
Note that although this bit is set for Timer 0A, this timer cannot chain because there is not a previously numbered Timer.
0x0 = Timer is not capable of chaining with the previously numbered Timer.
0x1 = Timer is capable of chaining with the previously numbered Timer.
