Timestamp
A time stamp can be placed into the upper left corner of the
image. It can be either No stamp, Binary or Binary + ASCII
(text).
The time resolution is 1 μs. In binary mode the first 16 pixels are
filled with the time stamp information (binary code). The
numbers are coded in BCD with one byte per pixel, which means that
every pixel contains 2 digits. If the pixels have more resolution than 8
bits, then the BCD digits are right bound placed and the upper bits
are zero. (1 BCD digit ≙ 4 bits; 2 numbers ≙ 2 BCD ≙ 8 bits = 1 byte;
every pixel contains 2 digits)
For further information refer to the SDK. In binary and ASCII mode
text is placed into the image replacing the content of the image (271x
8 pixels). Time step shows the end of exposure time.
Three different information is stamped onto the image: number of the
image , date and time .
Additionally to Timestamp the Image Overlay function is available,
see chapter 6.4.
6.3.6 STATUS
Shows the current temperature level of the pco.panda camera.
Electronics Temperature: shows the actual temperature of the
FPGA
Sensor Temperature: shows the actual sensor temperature.
Power Supply Temperature: shows the actual temperature of the
voltage supply inside the camera
If the temperature rises above a certain level, Camware gives a
warning.
Always ensure adequate cooling of the camera.
Do not expose it to direct sunlight or other sources of heat.
