Synchronous with SM3
In this mode data is sampled and then copied into Sync Manager buffer as soon
as previous data was read from the Master (SM event); in this way new sampled
data is synchronous with Master readings.
New data will be read by the Master at next cycle (following SM3 event), so if
cycle time is too long, data could be relatively old for a real-time system.
The main advantage is that data is updated exactly when Master is reading
(synchronous mode).

Synchronous with DC SYNC0
In this operating mode data is sampled and then copied into Sync Manager
buffer simultaneously at SYNC0 event generated by the ESC capture/compare
unit.
Time required for accomplishing these operations is set next to the
object; in particular object
(1C33hex, sub3) and
(1C33hex, sub6).
