Thank you, Richard. I will follow up with the hardware manufacturer. Perhaps it's just a hardware configuration issue.

It can be used by phc2sys or ntpd in order to discipline the Linux system time. However, it is not a great source of an output PPS signal. I guess your PPS comes from here, and the 2-3 microsecond delay is to be expected.
