Time Stamp
A time stamp can be placed into the upper left corner of the image. It can
be either off, binary, or binary with text. The time resolution is 1µs.
In binary mode the first 16 pixels will be filled with the time stamp
information (binary code). The numbers are coded in BCD with one byte per
pixel, which means that every pixel can hold 2 digits. If the pixels have more
resolution as 8 bits, then the BCD digits are right bound adjusted and the
upper bits are zero. For further information please refer to the SDK.
In binary and ASCII mode text will be placed into the image replacing the
content of the image (271x 8 pixels).
