Voice and Text Email Messages
The following sections describe how to send a voice message from your
badge to the email addresses of individual badge users or groups, how
to send a standard email message to a user, and how to view messages
on the badge display.
Sending a Voice Email From a Badge
You can send a voice email message from your badge to individual
badge users or groups. Your recorded message will be sent as a .wav
sound file that is attached to a generic text email message. The recipient
can play the message by using Windows Media Player or any other Win-
dows utility that can play .wav files.
The following table gives the commands for sending a voice email
message from a badge to an email address:
When you send an email message to a user, the message is sent to the
address stored for that user on the Vocera server. If you send the email
to a group, the message is sent to all members of the group.
Note: If a group member does not have an email address, the Genie
notifies you and asks if you want to send the message anyway.
