network. If you are sure you are within range of your network, contact
your system administrator.
Searching for Server The badge is within network range, but it is not communicating with the
Vocera Server. See Why does my device display say "Searching for
Server"? on page 93.

Requesting IP Address The badge is requesting an IP address from the DHCP server.
Messages Menu
Your badge can display text messages that were sent from email accounts, the Vocera User
Console, or an application that integrates with the Vocera system, such as a nurse call system.
When you select Messages, the display shows one subject line for each text message. On
B3000n and B3000 badges, the subject line for only one message is shown at a time. A closed
envelope symbol next to a subject means you have not yet read that message; an open envelope
means you have already read that message. An [S] means you have already read and saved that
message. See Reading Text Messages on page 45 for more information.
Settings Menu
The Settings menu (available on B3000n and B3000 badges) displays the following submenus
for personal settings: Volume, Font, Privacy, Group Mode, Return Home, and Flip Screen. The
Vocera Server preserves these settings whenever you log into a different B3000n or B3000
badge.
Return Home Command
The Return Home command (available on B3000n and B3000 badges) returns to the main
screen.
Info Menu
The Info menu gives you information about the badge you are using and how it is connected to
the network.
Most of this information is intended to be used by your system administrator for diagnostic
purposes.
The Info menu provides the following information:
• Battery. The battery strength is given in volts (V). The badge operates correctly when the
battery level is 3.5 V or greater.
