Webcam and Microphone

You may be required to use LockDown Browser with a webcam, which will record you during an online, non-proctored exam. (The webcam feature is sometimes referred to as "Respondus Monitor.")

Your computer must have a functioning webcam and microphone. A broadband connection is also required.

If an exam requires LockDown Browser and a webcam, after navigating to the test and selecting it in HuskyCT, the Startup Sequence for the webcam begins.

  1. You will first need to review and agree to the Terms of Use.

  2. The Webcam Check will confirm that your webcam and microphone are working properly

  3. The steps of the Startup Sequence will depend on the settings chosen by your instructor. Follow the instructions and note your progress at the top of the screen.

  4. If you encounter a problem, select the It’s not working link for troubleshooting tips.

The test will begin after the Startup Sequence is complete. You cannot exit LockDown Browser until the test is submitted for grading.
