Perform Continuity Test

CAUTION
– You cannot ARM while in Continuity Test
(CT) Mode and you cannot run CT while Armed. They are mutually exclusive for safety
reasons. Please be advised that the FM screen will display the results from the last
continuity check when CT Mode is NOT active on the CM. For live CT results you
must have CT Mode enabled on the CM. While CT mode is enabled, you will be able
to view live results on the FM or the CM. This will ensure that you are viewing live

pins. If the FM’s LEDs turn yellow, contact Firelinx support at
