Reading Text Messages
There are two kinds of messages you can read on your badge display:
• Email messages. (The previous section describes how to send these
to badges.)
• Text messages that are sent from the User Console. (See
To simplify the following instructions, the term “text messages” in the
following procedure refers to messages sent from either source.
To read text messages on the badge display:
1.
Hold the badge so that the display screen is visible.
2.
Press the Up button once to see the Messages icon:
3.
Press the Select button to select the Messages feature. You will
see a list of message subjects, one subject per line.The newest
messages are listed first.
If the message was sent from an email account, the subject line dis-
plays the first 12 or 13 characters of the message.
4.
Use the Up and Down buttons to scroll through the list of subjects
until you see the message you want to read.
5.
Press the Select button to display the message associated with the
selected subject. The display shows the body of the message, and
then the sender’s name, the sender’s email address, and the date
and time the message was received by the Vocera server. Use the
Up and Down buttons to scroll through the message, if necessary.
Note:
There is a limit of 150 characters for all text messages sent
to a badge. The Vocera User Console will not allow the sender to
create a message longer than 150 characters, but there is no way
to enforce this rule for email sent from a computer. If an email
message appears to be incomplete, it may mean that the original
message was longer than 150 characters.
