The main purpose of this paper is to justify that the resetting curve in a ring of excitable media, modeled by the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation on a circle, is continuous, provided that a perturbation, delivered at any phase of a limit cycle oscillation leaves the state point in the basin of attraction of the limit cycle. This result is related to a problem proposed by Glass and Josephson and which concerns the existence of a stimulus which leads to an annihilation of the wave of excitation and travelling around a ring of excitable media. The main ingredient in the proof is the continuity theorem which is formulated in a general setting of semiflow on a complete metric space. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0903.00038].
