TOPi® Selene 2020.9.0 continues the path in which TOPi® continually answers to the needs of the changing energy sector. This is achieved by integrating TOPi® more strongly with maintenance management tool Maximo and by enabling customers to create more detailed hierarchies by enhancing the internal site-functionality. Continued focus on improving database operations reached a milestone as Timescale is now supported as a data source. Intuitive ease of use is strengthened by implemented multiple improvements that were received from active TOPi® users.

- Data points are now displayed at round values according to the calculation step (period) selected for the variable. Previously if the start time was specified, e.g. as 10:04, values with 1-hour calculation step were displayed at 10:04, 11:04 etc. Now they are displayed at 10:00, 11:00 etc. (LA004660-3538)
