Basic Calling ··· 37
Basic Calling
Your Vocera device provides one-touch communication. To begin any kind of
call or to record or play messages, press the Call button to summon the Vocera
Genie. The Genie will answer with a tone, a prompt, or both (depending on the
setting that is active for your device) and will then be ready to accept your voice
commands.
The following sections describe the most-frequently used voice commands, by
category. Tables that summarize the commands follow.
Logging In and Out
Important: If someone is already logged in to your Vocera device when you
receive it, make sure it is you!
If you use a badge or phone while logged in as someone else, people won't be
able to contact you. Take a look at the screen on the phone or on the back of
the badge to make sure it displays your name. If the screen displays another
name, press the Call button and say "Log me out". Then press the Call button
again and log in by saying or spelling your name when the Genie prompts you.

your name multiple times or ask you to repeat a series of digits.
