A host processor (22) in a communication system (10) identifies a level of program visibility for reporting predetermined activation state changes, and signals a communications transceiver (24) to begin an initialization process. The communications transceiver (24) begins executing a series of states (51-55, 61-64) for initializing the communication system (10). A determination is made by the transceiver (24) whether a state change has occurred. A state change is identified and reported to a host processor (22) based on the program visibility select level.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method for program-flow reporting in a transceiver of a communication system having a program-flow, wherein the program-flow is for initializing the communication system and includes a plurality of activation states, the method comprising the steps of:selecting one or more states of the plurality of activation states to be reported during the program-flow, wherein the one or more states of the plurality of activation states are selected states;selecting a reporting level from a predetermined number of reporting levels, wherein the predetermined number of reporting levels includes a reporting level for reporting an identity and a beginning of each selected state of the plurality of activation states, wherein the identity of the selected state is included at a transition to each of the selected states in the program-flow;detecting, during the program-flow, each of the selected states;if a selected state is detected, interrupting a host processor of the transceiver; andreporting the identity of the selected state to the host processor.
