You can use the built-in dialing macros to create a single address book entry that
any badge user can access to call home.
Vocera interprets the %H dialing macro in this example as the
value you provided in the Home Phone field on the
User Information page of the Add User dialog box. A user can also enter or
change the Home Phone value in the User Console.
To create an address book entry for home:
-
Click Address Book in the navigation bar.
The Add, Edit, and Delete Entries page appears.
-
Click the Add New Entry button.
The Add New Entry dialog box appears.
-
Check Place in the Entry
Type section.
-
Enter a name such as My House in the
Name field. Make sure you use at least two
words in the name for optimal speech recognition.
Do not use the name "My Home" for this address book
entry. Badge users can issue the command "Forward calls to my
home phone" to forward calls when they are off-site. If users
instead accidentally forward calls to the address book entry called
"My Home" , other badge users who call them will
experience unexpected results. Users should not forward calls to an
address book entry that evaluates to the %H macro.
-
Enter %H in the Phone
field.
-
Click Save to close the dialog box and save the
entry.
When a user issues the voice command “ Call My House, ” Vocera
automatically dials the specific user's home phone number.
