The ABB Ability™ Smart Device Manager is the next-generation handheld device configurator and communicator, designed for efficient HART and FDI-based device management. Built on a high-performance, rugged tablet, it features an innovative graphical user interface that enables field engineers to work effectively with all types of process instrumentation.
This advanced handheld communicator simplifies the tasks of configuring, commissioning, diagnosing, and maintaining process instruments. It is fully aligned with the Field Device Integration (FDI) standard, combining the flexibility and universality of legacy device description technologies (such as EDD) with the rich functionality and enhanced capabilities of modern driver models (such as DTM).
This HART configurator/communicator ships with a robust tablet (10.1" Full HD display, outdoor readable, drop-and-weather resistant) and a user-friendly graphical interface, enabling quick startup (scanning and identifying devices within minutes), intuitive navigation, multi-device management, template-based configurations, online/offline driver access and include support for Windows 11 and updated software compatibility to align with evolving OS and cyber-security requirements.
One hardware device to cater for all our ABB Ability solutions like Verification for measurement devices and My Measurement Assistant.
