The FE-5680A 1pps is not sync'd to UTC.
According to my calculations, it would take several hours
to walk the 1pps to UTC given the 3.8e-5 adjustment
range via the RS232 input.  A thunderbolt, an arduino,
and patience.
You don't need to take the walk. Just fudge the ATOM driver time1 parameter after scoping the offset between GPS PPS and 5680A PPS signals. You would need to reset it on a Rb power cycle though.

just thought of something else which worked for me and may be of use.

If you don't have a scope or TIC to get the Rbs PPS offset from GPS, you can let NTP do it for you. You need a stable reference such as GPS to be set up as a prefered server, then set up the atom driver for the 5680A with no offset and prevent selection with "noselect" parameter and or push the stratum from 0 to 8. Once NTP has been running a while, the offset of the DUTs PPS will be seen in the ntpq -pn output. You can plug that in as the DUTs fudge time1 parameter and restart ntpd. You may need to iterate.
ex.
 server 127.127.22.1 minpoll 4 maxpoll 4 noselect
fudge 127.127.22.1 stratum 8 refid PPS1 time1 0.000000 flag3 0 flag2 1 # enable PPS module

remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================

==============================================================================
127.127.22.1 .PPS1. 8 l 11 16 377 0.000 -1.528 0.038 *145.238.203.14 .TS-3. 1 u 19 64 377 33.300 0.217 0.750

ntpq -pn only gives usec resolution displays but ntpd calculates in nanosecs. You have to have logging enabled and look at the peerstat data if you want that.
