Quick Start: Joining a SignGlasses Session
This guide will walk you through joining your sessions in SignGlasses.
First, set up your camera and microphone
If you are providing us with audio and video yourself,
Plug in/connect your microphone
Turn it on
Give the microphone to the teacher/presenter if it is a lapel microphone
Plug in your external camera if you are using one
If you are in a remote class - getting audio from a platform like Zoom or Teams - you do not need to do this step.
If you are using one of our supported microphones, you can use our guide on Setting up your External Microphone & Camera to help set those up.
Open & Review the Session Information
Log into your SignGlasses account
On your Dashboard, locate the session and click [View Details]
You can also go to your Calendar to locate and open the session!
When you are ready to join the session,
Click the blue [Go Live] button at the top right of your screen.
The Equipment Check Page
Allow your browser access to your camera and microphone:
Click the camera icon to the left of your URL
Select the toggles next to:
Camera
Microphone
Refresh your page.
Select your Camera & Microphone
The Personal Camera should be facing you
The Personal Microphone should be muted
The Room Camera should be facing the presenter/presentation
The Room Microphone should be your external microphone that you just connected
Then click [Join].
Tip: Choose your external mic from the Room Microphone drop-down menu. Then mute your personal mic for in-person sessions.
Don't see your external camera or microphone as an option? Follow the steps in our guide on Setting up your External Microphone & Camera and then refresh your page.
If there are multiple users in a session...
Sometimes, more than one person might be receiving services in a session - but only one person should be providing audio and the Room camera feed. When this happens:
The first user to join should connect their external microphone and enable the room equipment
The other users should mute their mics and disable the room setup when they join.
