Check Internet
This feature is used to verify the Internet connection. A green check mark indicates a
successful network connection via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. A red exclamation point (!) indicates

but the tablet still cannot access the Internet. To confirm the connection to the Internet, the
“Verify Connection” brings up the ContiFluidSolutions home page in a web browser. If the
site comes up, the CrimpIQ™ controller has a connection to the Internet.
