For the network control center, an optimized cabling infrastructure was implemented and the computer systems were relocated to a protected area. KVM modules make these systems available at the operator workstations in the control room.
The relocated equipment includes several office PCs, a remote-control PC for the control center, and a ripple control system. These systems were connected to a compact matrix via KVM computer modules.
The matrix solution allows tasks to be handled flexibly from any of the configured workstations. Employees can access the required computers in real time from different workstations and switch between systems via an on-screen display or configured keyboard shortcuts.
In addition, a multiviewing solution with a central video wall improves collaboration and process monitoring within the control room.
Additional functions support day-to-day operations. With Push-Get, images and information can be shared or retrieved flexibly between different displays within the control room. The Autoscan function allows remote-control systems for electricity, water, and gas to be displayed automatically on the central video wall at individually configurable intervals.
