Cyclone 10GX LVDS SERDES & DPA

I am starting a design using the Cyclone 10GX LVDS SERDES IP with DPA. I would like to verify that if I instantiate a 4-channel design, the SERDES IP will do DPA independently on each channel. This means that there can be an arbitrary (but fixed) relationship between each of the channels and the incoming SERDES clock. It appears this is the case from the User Guide, but it is not stated explicitly.

    Based on the user guide, you can configure each LVDS SERDES IP core channel as a receiver for a single differential I/O.

    Each LVDS SERDES IP core channel contains a SERDES, a bitslip block, DPA circuitry for all modes, a high-speed clock tree (LVDS clock tree) and forwarded clock signal for soft-CDR mode. Therefore, an n-channel LVDS interface contains n-serdes_dpa blocks.
