This allows installation and commissioning technicians in the field to simultaneously perform automated continuity tests on multiple smart devices and document all the final results.
ABB Ability™ System 800xA 6.1.1 makes commissioning digital solutions easier than ever. Thanks to the 800xA System Publisher extension, you can securely and easily choose which data to transmit to ABB Ability™ Genix Industrial Analytics and AI Suite, both at the edge and in the cloud.
Faster and more cost-effective project execution is possible thanks to the inclusion of Select I/O enhancements in the new version. Standardizing I/O cabinets leads to faster and more cost-effective project execution, reducing the impact of last-minute changes and keeping the footprint to a minimum. To reduce the amount of auxiliary hardware that needs to be added to I/O cabinets, Select I/O now includes Ethernet adapters with native single-mode fiber optic connectivity and individual signal conditioning modules that incorporate intrinsically safe barriers.
This latest version of ABB's flagship DCS boasts numerous enhanced features, including OPC UA connectivity options, which in turn facilitate IT/OT convergence. A wide range of OPC UA communication levels are available in this new version, including system-level OPC UA client and server. The addition of more OPC UA connectivity in the AC 800M controller and more OPC UA functions in the 800xA History means that ABB Ability™ System 800xA 6.1.1 enhances secure collaboration between systems and applications.
Cybersecurity is a critical focus for any factory owner. ABB Ability System 800xA 6.1.1 strengthens IT security through the latest security patches and updates included with Microsoft Windows Server 2019. Furthermore, secure ISA compliance has been achieved for the most popular System 800xA process and safety controllers (PM866 and PM867).
Agility and collaboration are further enhanced with the new DCS, which opens the door to modular orchestration. ABB Ability System 800xA 6.1.1 offers the option to seamlessly import Module Type Packages (MTPs), regardless of the automation vendor's platform. It does this by providing the necessary coordinated control logic for superior supervisory control. It is standards-compliant and has plug-and-produce capabilities that improve production flexibility and competitiveness.
