After connecting the device to the correct port, what is the next step in the setup process?

Establishing an initial trace is a critical step in the setup process after connecting the device to the correct port. This process typically involves confirming that the connection is functioning properly and that the device is able to communicate effectively with the network or system it has been plugged into. Establishing an initial trace helps ensure that data can flow correctly and that the device is recognized by other components in the system.

Once the trace is established, it allows technicians to confirm signal integrity, check for errors, and provide a baseline for troubleshooting any potential issues. This step is essential to verify that all components are operating as expected, paving the way for further configuration tasks such as tuning frequencies or testing signals.
