Have a look at this thread of discussion:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ts-7000/message/13623

There's some information concerning these registers.

But to tell you the truth, i'm agree with you, it seems to me that you 
can't adjust the timing as describe in the manual...

I've noticed, that to turn on/off the control, you have to play with 
the bit "activate/deactivate TS special signal".

Please keep this mailing list informed.

i solved my problem by using 0x162A8, 0x16bdc being the value i read 
after booting the full debian distro.
