Counter Information
An optional counter information can be enabled.
When enabled, this counter information is integrated in the first pixels of every transferred frame and
replace the first 40 bits (i.e. 5 pixels in Mono8 pixel format). This 40bit counter is built as follow:
•
16 first bits contain an image counter (incrementing with every frame transferred)
•
24 next bits contain a micro-second precision counter that indicates the time when the frame
exposure has started.
When disabled, no information is integrated in the transferred frames and all bits are pixel data.
Counter Information is controlled by XML entry:
