The VCS application includes the Call module, which enables fast, simple, person-to-person voice connection over your company's wireless network.
The Call module provides the voice capabilities of the Vocera badge within your smartphone. Using voice commands, you can instantly connect to the people that you need to reach in an emergency or in any other crucial situation.
Using Call, you can:
- Place a call using the Genie, which is the voice interface to the Vocera Voice Server. This is the interface that the Vocera badge uses.
- Send a page, start an instant broadcast, or summon emergency help with a panic broadcast.
- Communicate using your device's speaker, handset, headphones, or Bluetooth connection.
- Use your keypad to call an extension, local phone number, or long distance number.
- View your call log to keep track of who you have called and when.
Note: To be able to use the Call module, your organization must have installed the Vocera Voice Server on your network.
Important: If you have used the Clock app on your iOS device to set an alarm, and the alarm is activated while you are in a call, you may lose the audio on your call. This is due to a limitation in the Apple iOS operating system.
