Setting Do Not Disturb

Do Not Disturb notification settings appear in an orange banner at the top of the Secure Messages screen. You can specify that you do not want to receive calls, messages, or both. You can also set a period of time during which you do not want to be disturbed.

Note: Vocera recommends that you use the VCS app's Do Not Disturb setting instead of the device's setting. This ensures that VCS routes your calls properly when you are not available to receive them.

  2. Do one of the following:
    • To specify that you are not to be disturbed by messages, select Text to enable the Do Not Disturb for Text setting.

      When Text is selected, you can select Do not Allow Urgent if you do not want urgent messages to override your Do Not Disturb for Text setting.

    • To specify that you are not to be disturbed by calls, select Call to enable the Do Not Disturb for Calls setting.

      Note: When Do Not Disturb for Calls is on, the Call screen is displayed with an orange background. If you make a call when Do Not Disturb for Calls is on, this setting is turned off.
    • To specify that you are not to be disturbed by either calls or messages for a specified period of time, select DND Timer. From the dialog box that appears, tap the length of time during which you do not want to be disturbed, or tap Cancel to cancel.
