Maintaining Properties and Firmware

You can use the Vocera Voice Server to change badge properties or update firmware any time after the initial device configuration, instead of using the configuration computer.

This is convenient because the Vocera Voice Server can update connected devices automatically, without requiring you to configure them again.

Although the Vocera Voice Server can update your existing device, you should continue to maintain the configuration computer after you complete the initial device configuration. You will need the configuration computer to configure any new device that you receive.

Tip: Copy the badge.properties file from the \vocera\config directory on the configuration computer to the same directory on the Vocera Voice Server after you complete the initial device configuration. You can use this file as a reference to view the property values that the device currently use. In addition, if you need to change the badge properties later, the Vocera Voice Server uses this file to update the devices automatically.
