5.6. MessageChannel
The asynchronous message channel is described in the GigE Vision
®
standard and offers
the possibility of event signaling. There is a timestamp (64 bits) for each announced event,
which contains the accurate time the event occurred. Each event can be activated and
deactivated separately.
