The badge will begin a startup sequence. Wait until the badge
display reads Logged Out or shows someone’s name.
4. Put the badge on, and make sure it is in the proper position.
To get the best possible speech recognition, the microphone on the
top of the badge should point toward your mouth and should be 6
to 12 inches (15 to 30 centimeters) from your mouth.
5. Log in: Press the Call button and wait for the Genie to answer.
If the Genie asks for your name, say your first and last names.
If the Genie answers by saying “Vocera” or by playing a tone,
say “Log me in as your first and last name” (for example, “Log me
in as John Smith”).
6. Record your name: Press the Call button, wait for the Genie to
answer, and then say “Record my name.”
The Genie will prompt you to record your name. If you do not
record your name, the Vocera system uses speech synthesis to say
your name.
7. Adjust the volume on the badge, if necessary. (See Volume Adjust-
ment on page 23).
Your badge is now ready to use. You can press the Call button at any
time, wait for the Genie to answer, and then give the Genie a voice
command, such as:
“Call Jim Olsen.”
“Record my greeting.”
“Play my messages.”
See Basic Calling on page 27 and Advanced Commands on page 39 for
more information about Vocera commands.
