3M™ FED Connection
Before proceeding with an Autotest the FED must 
be connected at one end of the pair under test. 
The 3M
™
 FED and FED II support both Inactive 
(voiceband) and Wideband Autotests.  Press the On/
Off pushbutton twice on the 3M FED to  transmit 
an ID tone on the Control pair. This can be used 
to identify the pair at the other end. If an ID tone 
is not needed, the 3M FED can be left off since it 
will be remotely powered up during the Autotest. 
Refer to the 3M FED Instruction Manual for more 
information.
Note:  CO Tip and Ring should never be clipped 
together.
Note: Always initially connect the 965DSP test leads 
to Pair 1 when using the FED II in two pair hookup. 
Do not move the test leads to Pair 2 until prompted by 
the 965DSP.
