Instructions

1. The Connection Test can be accessed by clicking the orange “Connection Test” button on your dashboard as shown below:
   
   

   Open

   

    

2. If this is your first time on the platform, you will be prompted to “Allow” access to your computer’s camera and microphone
   
   

   Open

   

    

   1. If you blocked access to your camera or microphone, use the following links to grant access:

      1. Google Chrome's Camera & Microphone Settings

      2. Microsoft Edge's Camera & Microphone Settings

3. After granting access to the camera and microphone, you will be directed to the Connection Test to ensure that your device is compatible with the platform prior to joining a deposition room
   
   

    

4. Within the Connection Test, you can also adjust your camera and microphone if necessary
   
   

    

5. To begin the test, click on the green “Run Connection Test” button
   
   

    

    

6. Once the test starts you can monitor the progress as it runs quality checks
   
   

    

   1. To ensure that your speakers are functioning properly, you can select “Play Sample Audio” during the test
      
      

7. Once the test is complete, you will get a report on the status of your connection
   
   

    

8. You will be prompted to run the connection test as you are whenever you are joining a deposition.
   
   

    

9. There is an option to ‘Skip the Connection Test’ after selecting “Join Now”; however, we strongly recommended performing the Connection Test to ensure a successful remote deposition experience.
