5 | | To use mexcla, either dial our main number (`+1-718-303-3204`) and press `6` or if you [wiki:freeswitch have a SIP account on our freeswitch server], dial `9999@talk.mayfirst.org`. |
| 5 | Note: ''mexcla will not interpret for you''. Instead, it provides a way for your living and breathing interpreter to provide simultaneous interpretation to the mono-lingual users on the call without interfering with the bilingual participants who will hear the speakers' directly. |

| 7 | There are several ways to use mexcla: |
| 8 | |
| 9 | * If you are running a recent version of Chrome/Chromium or Firefox/Iceweasl (see version table below), then visit our [https://live.mayfirst.org/mexcla web conference]. |
| 10 | * If you have a SIP software program, use your [wiki:freeswitch MF/PL SIP account or our open to the public account on our freeswitch server] and dial `9999@talk.mayfirst.org`. |
| 11 | * If all else fails, dial our main number (`+1-718-303-3204`) and press `6` or if you (we have a limited number of incoming phone lines, so mileage may vary). |

| 25 | A working browser will behave like this: |
| 26 | |
| 27 | * When you click the Connect button it will change to Connecting (this may take up to 15 seconds)... |
| 28 | * You will be asked by your browser for permission to use the microphone (on Chromium this only happens the first time you connect to a server, provided it's an https site, so if this step does not happen it does not necessarily mean a failure) |
| 29 | * After about 15 seconds, it changes to "Connected" and the phone icon red slash disappears. |
| 30 | * You should hear an announcement of the conference room number you are in and, possibly "You are the only person in call" or something to that effect. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Testing whether others can hear you is a bonus, but if you get this far, I'm assuming other audio problems are OS related or specific to your browser installation, so less relevant to this chart. |

| 34 | If you are testing with Firefox "nightly" or "beta" please put the version it will become so this page doesn't become outdated too quickly. |
