To increase the step size aka time step of your simulation, use the
stepsize=n option to ADMP. A default n=1000 corresponds to a 0.1fs time
step. The option maxpoints is used to specify the number of time steps or
length of simulation time. maxpoints=300 with a default n=1000 should give
you a 30fs MD simulation.
If you want a step size of 0.5fs and 1ps simulation, your ADMP keywords
should be
ADMP(maxpoints=2000,stepsize=5000,fullscf)
Since you are using the fullscf keyword, you are converging the SCF at
every simulation step and thus running a BOMD simulation and not a ADMP
simulation.
See http://gaussian.com/admp/ for additional details and
keywords.
