Sending Text Messages to Vocera Devices
You can send text messages from a T1000 phone, your email account, or the
User Console to a user or a group. When you send a message to a group, all
members of the group receive the message. Recipients can read these short
messages on their device displays.
The following sections describe how to send text messages to a Vocera device.
You cannot send text messages
from
a Vocera badge, but you can send
them from a T1000 phone. However, both Vocera badges and phones can
receive
text messages. See
Listening to Messages
on page 62 and
Reading
Messages
on page 65 for information about playing or reading text messages.

TBD
Sending a Text Message from an Email Program
Before you can send email to Vocera devices, you need to get the following
information from your system administrator:
• The email address that is dedicated to the Vocera system. All email messages
to Vocera users must be addressed to this email account.
• The user ID of the user to whom you want to send the email (this is often the
person's first initial followed by the last name) or the name of the group and
its site, if it's not in the Global site. The user ID or group name must be the
only text in the subject line of the email.
You must send the email message as plain text. Make sure the email message is
not in HTML or RTF format.
To send a text message from an email account:
1. In your email program, start a new message.
2. In the
To:
field, enter the email address of the Vocera system.
