Creating Group Templates and Normalizers for Units / Creating Group Templates for Units |
Role-based groups for specific locations are usually named in a predictable pattern in the Vocera Voice Server so users can remember how to reference them in voice commands. For example, it is fairly common to see a naming convention such as Room RoomNumber Bed BedNumber RoleName, where the fields in the convention have either constant values or vary in a predictable pattern.
This pattern is used as a naming convention for specific role-and-location based group names such as the following shown in the VS Administration Console:
The naming convention is often replicated from one unit to another, since hospital units often have a systematic structure. For example, The E2 unit could have the same convention:
These systematic naming conventions can be captured efficiently in a template by using a simplified form of regular expressions.
