Event Manager

AFCON’s Event Manager

helps control room operators

respond efficiently to events

by providing access to critical

information, step-by-step

procedures and real-time

availability of human

resources. By recording

every step in the event

handling process, it provides

a comprehensive account of

the event, allowing efficient

investigation and debriefing.



BENEFITS

• Ensures that policies and procedures are followed uniformly.

• Reduces the risk for human error.

• Increases response efficiency.

• Reduces the need for comprehensive training.

• Improves regulatory compliance.

• Optimizes control room performance.

• Allows comprehensive debriefing of events including operator tasks and relevant video.

SAMPLE SCENARIO

Motion detector alerts with

pre-defined alarm message.

Event Manager guides the operator

throughout the procedure displaying

detailed tasks.

Pulse pops-up relevant video

to verify the alert.

The operator controls the nearby

camera to point toward the motion

detector or to display the monitored

and prerecorded video.

The relevant map pops-up,

highlighting the relevant area.

After performing all relevant tasks

the event is closed while entering the

event summary report.

Operator acknowledges the alarmby clicking the area.

All data is recorded in an intuitive

journal for later investigation or dataretrieval.



STEP-BY-STEP GUIDANCE

THROUGH PROCEDURES

AFCON’s Event Manager solvesthe reliance on the operator’s

knowledge and experience by

providing step-by-step guidance

based on predefined procedures.

Each step can have a predefined

schedule for completion.

Offloading this extensive

knowledge to the system enforces

processes, reduces the risk of

human error, reduces the need for

extensive training, and enablescomprehensive recording of

events for future investigations.

MULTIPLE INPUTS FROM

A VARIETY OF SOURCES

Events can be automatically

triggered by any sensor, which is

connected to the Pulse SCADA/

HMI system or manually

triggered by the operator. The

events are grouped in predefinedcategories, such as the type of the

event, its location and more. In

addition, predefined priorities are

related to each event, allowing the

operator to prioritize the work

and focus on critical events first.

DIRECT ACCESS

TO HUMAN RESOURCES’

AVAILABILITY

Thanks to its Shift Management

module, operators can gain instant

access to the relevant personnel

during the shift. Within the

procedure the system instructs

the operator to contact a specific

person (not by role), which

the system knows is filling the

required position during the shift.

EVENT VISUALIZATION

When connected to surveillance

cameras, Event Manager offers

comprehensive situational

awareness with real-time video

as well as video playback options.

The system supports a three-

screen environment that allows

management of the tasks/

procedures on one screen, viewing

maps and floor plans on a second

screen, and viewing the real-time/ playback video on the third one.

COMPREHENSIVE

INVESTIGATION

ENVIRONMENT

Event Manager features a

comprehensive debriefing and

investigation environment. Since

every step of the event is recorded

and timed along with the relevant

video, it provides an accurate andcomplete account of the event,

allowing its efficient investigation

and examination of the operator’s

performance in handling the event.

MUNICIPAL

Control rooms are hectic environments. Operators have to rapidly respond to events, follow

protocols and procedures, locate the source of the event, and very often escalate the event to

various stakeholders. In most cases, the relevant knowledge is based on extensive training,

creating a reliance on the experience and abilities of the operator.

FEATURES

sensor or video feed that is

connected to the Pulse

SCADA/HMI

• Supports operator-generated

events (manual)

• Predefined event categorization

by location, function, type, etc.

• Predefined event prioritization

• Operator guidance through

step-by-step procedures

• Predefined scheduling of

procedure steps

direct access to relevant

personnel

• Comprehensive event

visualization with real-time/

playback video and maps
