   2. If the dot is green, proceed to step 2
1. Place a call in, does the phone ring? Is there a Fonality pop-up?
2. Open up the Fonality HUD on your desktop, and check your status

1. Reset Your Phone
1. Unplug the cord where it plugs into the phone.  You will want to make sure that all lights and displays on the phone go out.  Leave the cord out for at least ten seconds then plug it back in.  When the phone comes back online (has a dial tone and shows you as “Active” on the HUD) try another test.  If this does not solve the problem, continue on to step 3.

1. Reset Fonality HUD
   1. Once you identify it, right click it with your mouse and then left click on the menu that comes up where it says “Exit”
1. Click the “X” at the top right corner of the Fonality HUD to shut it down
2. Go to the Task bar at the bottom right, next to the clock, and find the HUD icon (small, bile-green colored with “Fon” printed on it).  If you do not see it, click on the upward pointing arrow on the left side of those small icons.  This will open the “hidden icons”.  Make sure the icon does not appear in this area if you don’t see it with the other icons that are visible on the taskbar.
3. Now open the task manager by placing your mouse anywhere in the blank space on the very bottom section of the screen (the taskbar) and do a single right click.  If you are on top of an icon, you will only get a menu that applies to that program.  If you don’t see the choice “Start Task Manger” you need to try it from another spot on the taskbar.  You will want to choose the selection that says “Start Task Manager” by left clicking it.  You will see this:If you are seeing a much simpler window that says “Task Manager” at the top, look on the bottom left for a choice to “Show More Options” and click on that to see the image above.  Make sure that the correct tab “Processes” is selected (see red circle on image) and then check for the Fonality name in either the “Apps” or “Background Processes” (green circle on image).  If you see it, select it by left-clicking it once to select it and then clicking on the “End Task” button on the bottom right of the task manager window (blue circle on image).  Once you have ended all Fonality processes, you can close this screen with the “X” on the top right corner of the window.

1. Now find the Fonality icon on your desktop or in your start menu and relaunch the HUD.
2. Make sure that the 'status' at the top right corner of the HUD shows Online, with a green dot
1. If it does not, change the status to online by clicking on it once and change the status to 'online'
2. Place a test call to see if it is operational yet.  If not, proceed to the next step.

1. Switch Web Launcher
   1. In almost the dead center, there will be a dropdown box next to where it says “Web Launcher Profile”.(see red circle in above image).  It should say “CallPotential Call Center”.  If it does not, select it from the dropdown box.

   3. On the Fonality HUD, click the 'File' button at the top left portion of the HUD. It says "Fonality" next to it.
