Serial Protocol-Based Event Trigger

A method for a serial protocol-based event trigger includes detecting a condition of a Device Under Test (DUT) with a first text pattern, wherein the condition indicates an enabled function of the DUT. A command is transmitted to the DUT to perform a first action with the enabled function in response to detecting the condition of the DUT. A second text pattern received from the DUT is detected in response to the first action. The second text pattern indicates a successful completion of an event by the enabled function. A second action is performed in response to detecting the second text pattern.
