State Vector

The section on state vectors is totally wrong. After reverse-engineering some data files with the help of the BCI2000Viewer, it appears that the state vectors are actually encoded in reverse-big-endian. In other words, if smaller numbers represent lower order bits, then the state vector layout mentioned in this section would actually be encoded as follows:

State Vector Byte 1 State Vector Byte 2 State Vector Byte 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Running SourceTime unused
0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15  

Which on the physical machine actually maps to:

State Vector Byte 1 State Vector Byte 2 State Vector Byte 3
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Running SourceTime unused
0 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 15
