Trigger on data event

If you select this option in the condition's section of the "Trigger Settings" window, you can setup a trigger, that scans the send or receive line for specific data.

This data can be entered as an ASCII String or as a hexadecimal value. You cannot enter control codes under the space character (0x20); they will be ignored by the trigger engine!!!

Hint:
If you want to scan for more than one character string, you can setup multiple triggers of the same start or stop condition to use them automatically as a trigger group!

Example:
...
Trigger1: Data trigger(D1/Tx) = "Hello" [Start trigger]
Trigger2: Data trigger(D1/Tx) = "World" [Start trigger]
...

--> Waits for a string "Hello" or "World" on "transmit data" line!!!
