Locating a Vocera User or Group Member
72 ··· Vocera Badge User Guide
Locating a Vocera User or Group Member
To find a Vocera user or group member in your location or in neighboring
locations, press the Call button and tell the Genie to "Locate nearest User" or
"Locate nearest member of Group name."
To locate a Vocera user or group member at a different site, you must first
connect to that site using the "Connect to Site" command. After you are
connected to the site, use one of the "Locate" voice commands.
Important: The voice command Find ("Find John Smith" for example) will call
the user or group.

Recording Your Voiceprint
A voiceprint allows the system to authenticate you when you log in. A
voiceprint is similar to a fingerprint—it distinguishes you from other people. If
you have recorded your voiceprint, you will be challenged to repeat some digits
when you log in. The system compares your voice with your recorded voiceprint
and denies the login if there is a mismatch.
Voiceprint authentication is active only if it has been enabled by your system
administrator. Your system administrator needs to provide separate permissions
for you to record and erase your voiceprint. Normally, only your system
administrator will have permission to erase the voiceprint of another user.
