I’m trying to write a value to a tag in kepserver of type “word”, the tag in Ignition is of type"int4". I get an error when trying to write to it. is the error referring a mismatched data ?

`ERROR [TagUtilities$WriteListener-AWT-EventQueue-0] <HTML>Error writing to Setting_Hopper_04.Value:<BR>The value supplied for the attribute is not of the same type as the attribute's value.

Install [this beta version](https://s3.amazonaws.com/uploads.hipchat.com/22761/123160/W0Tue5LGf4cLij4/OPC-UA-module.modl) of the UA module and it should start working.
