[Emc-users] Pico-Systems PPMC Pin, Signal and Function descriptions?

Hi All; Does anyone know where, or if there is a document for these? The ones not so obvious to me are: setp ppmc.0.stepgen.00-03.pulse-width-ns 3500 setp ppmc.0.stepgen.00-03.pulse-space-min-ns 3500 setp ppmc.0.stepgen.00-03.setup-time-ns 1000 1- Does this set all the steppers on a board the
