Quick test for B3000 and B3000n

To run a Quick Test on B3000n B3000, preform the following tasks:

  1. Remove the battery from the Badge, then insert it again.
    The screen displays the word vocera and proceeds to count from 1 to 6.
  2. When the screen reaches 6, press and hold the Call button (the large button on the front of the Badge) for about 5 seconds. When you see patterns on the OLED screen, release the Call button.
    The Quick Test proceeds through the following tests:
    1. OLED test: When the OLED test starts (the pixels will go from off to on), make sure you remove your fingers from the microphones because the audio test starts next. You must watch the OLED screen during the test to identify any problems; the Quick Test will not report an OLED failure. What sort of problems should you look for? Check to see whether a significant portion of the screen is on or off at all times, which would interfere with your ability to read the screen.
    2. Audio test: Be quiet during the audio test. Sound will play for 5 seconds, and the screen will indicate whether the four microphones are working.
      Note: If the Quick Test reports that one or more of the microphones has failed, you may have inadvertently covered the microphones with your fingers while holding the Badge. Try running the Quick Test again, and this time be careful not to cover the microphones.
    3. Battery test: Displays information about the battery temperature, voltage, current, and power.
    4. LED test: You must watch the green and amber lights to identify any problems. Make sure they turn on and off.
    5. Halo test: Watch the halo lights to identify any problems. Make sure they turn on and off (B3000n only).
    6. WLAN test: Displays the radio configuration, AP table, and IP table. The Badge will associate with an AP. If using DHCP, the Badge request an IP address.
    7. Button test: Prompts you to press and release buttons to ensure they are working.
  3. Press and hold the Call button to exit the Quick Test.
  4. Send logs of the Quick Test to the server using the Sendlogs utility after the Badge restarts.
    Note: If you encounter a failure in any portion of the Quick Test, contact Vocera Technical Support for further assistance.
