Are you sure the cable pull is a necessary component of this procedure?

A little research shows the following: There are three steps in the boot/connect process. Start emplode, boot the empeg, connect the USB cable. What happens depends on the sequence of these steps.

1) Boot empeg
2) Connect USB
3) Start Emplode
Emplode will not see the empeg until I R&R the USB cable.

1) Connect USB
2) Boot empeg
3) Start Emplode
Emplode comes up already connected, no refresh necessary.

1) Connect USB
2) Start Emplode
3) Boot empeg
Emplode will connect after hitting the refresh button.

1) Start Emplode
2) Boot the empeg
3) Connect USB
Emplode will not see the empeg until I R&R the USB cable.

So, it would seem that if I boot the empeg before I connect the USB cable, then Emplode will not see the empeg unless I R&R the cable after Emplode tries and fails to connect.

I suppose after all this someone will tell me "Well, of course you dummy! You always have to make the USB connection before you boot the empeg. I can't believe you didn't know that." But I really didn't know that...

Do other people experience these same results with the different startup permutations?
