GALE Troubleshooting

Zoom Call Issues

If GALE keeps stopping each time you try and make a call

​​

  1. Follow basic troubleshooting steps

​
If it appears as if a call has gone through, but a provider isn't joining or has reported an issue

​​

  1. Check the Progress bar (image below)

  2. Check and/or wait for Zoom Error messages

  3. Ensure there are no issues on the Provider end

​

Call Progress bar

If the progress spinner doesn’t progress past the first step, "Connecting to the Zoom Meeting", the call hasn’t initialized. If the call has not been initialized, the call will not appear in the Call Center, and recipients will not receive a notification.

 

If the call does not proceed past the initial step within a few minutes, this most often indicates an issue with the network or a blip in the network when the call was made. Sometimes, if you have recently changed your network or started up your tablet, your tablet may take several minutes to fully connect to Zoom, even if other services appear to be working.

​

  1. End the call and place the call again

  2. End the call and the session, and place the call again

  3. Sync, and restart the GALE tablet

  4. Check that GALE is on the appropriate network

  5. Check all network requirements

  6. Additional basic troubleshooting​​

    1. Wait - sometimes the screen takes up to 10 seconds to change​

Zoom "Custom Streaming Service"

“Custom Streaming Service” Zoom message

 

This message will appear on Zoom for both the Provider (web or desktop app) and if you select GALE (menu > Apps). This is because of a feature added that, if configured, allows GALE to automatically record and upload the audio from the encounter.

 

NOTE: This is a configurable option. GALE will not record or upload any audio unless specified and configured to do so by a deployment administrator. Contact us to learn more about this option.
