This command is used to enable/extend the timestamp feature for CAN bus messages reception/transmission. First TIMESTAMP must to enabled; just after enable timestamp value has normal 16 bits length. The length can be to an extended mode of 40 bits. Timestamping is done providing beside to each message the current value of an internal free-running counter. The counter period can be chosen in the range 12.5ns to 819,18µs the default period is 1µs because of default prescaler = 80. Prescaler settings are shared for all channels. Changing to timestamp prescaler can be done when channel are not yet open.
