One more thing; I noticed that the layout of the other port-config
structures do not match the ones used by your library API, which is what
the above pdf documents (e.g. they have additional padding).

Did you verify that the above layout is actually correct? And did you
try changing the pin functions in EEPROM and make sure that your code
handles it as expected?

Is there any corresponding document for the actual device protocol?
