Use the equipment check

Allow your camera and microphone, choose the devices you use, and join a session on SignGlasses.

When you join a session on SignGlasses, the equipment check opens first. You choose your devices there before anyone in the session can see or hear you.

Allow your camera and microphone

If your browser asks to use your camera and microphone, allow it. A green message then says you passed all requirements.

If a red message says the equipment check failed, the text under it says why:

  • The browser does not have permission. See Enable camera and microphone in your browser.
  • Another app or browser tab is using the camera or microphone. Close it, then refresh the page.
  • No camera or microphone was found. Check that it is connected and turned on, then refresh the page.

Choose your devices and join

  1. Under Personal camera, choose the camera that faces you.
  2. Under Personal microphone, choose your headset.
  3. Leave Join with personal camera on turned on, so the people you interpret for can see you.
  4. Select Join.

The equipment check remembers the devices you choose and selects them again in your next session.

Test your devices ahead of time

To check your camera, microphone, speakers, and connection without joining a session, select Equipment check in the sidebar.
