Hi Paul,

Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, it's only necessary for E825C, other products don't need or support
it.

Yes. I guess for the function argument 'enable' would be better.

Good point regarding the name, I guess I should use 'cfg' instead of
'ena' in this case to be clear that this function doesn't only enable
PPS output.

That said, I don't see a point to use two separate functions for
a simple enable/disable functionality. From my point of view, ~20 lines
for 2 lines of actual code difference would be unnecessarily redundant.

Kind regards,
Karol
