Among the new ABB Ability innovations showcased in Houston are:
在休斯頓展出的ABB Ability創新方案包括：

• ABB Ability System 800xA – One of the solutions provided by ABB Ability builds on the market-leading automation platform System 800xA. Select I/O, a new addition to System 800xA, is a redundant, Ethernet-based, single-channel I/O system. It supports ABB’s next-generation project execution model, Intelligent Projects, which offers a range of efficiency improvements for automation projects. With Select I/O, customers can undertake major projects on a faster schedule with fewer cost overruns. It uses standardized cabinets that allow installers to digitally marshal signals instead of using labor-intensive marshalling panels. Loop checks can be done before the rest of the system is delivered, minimizing the impact of late changes and allowing for project tasks to be executed in parallel.

ABB Ability係統800xA——建立於市場領先的自動化平台係統800xA之上的ABB Ability方案之一。係統800xA 新增的Select I/O是一個基於以太網的冗餘單通道I/O係統。它支持ABB的下一代項目執行模型Intelligent Projects，為自動化項目提供一係列的效率改進。通過Select I/O
