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.

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.

sensor or video feed that is
connected to the Pulse
SCADA/HMI

events (manual)
