I am not sure if I am running into a bug in the beta, but I can’t get a cell update binding to evaluate without an expression error showing up on the table. I currently have one of the row cells in the table bound to a memory float tag and the column type is float (images attached). Below is the output in the console seems to be something with datatype conversion possibly.  
When I test the exact same table cell update binding in Version 7.9 the table evaluates correctly. Just wondering if I’m missing something?

Hi Mark

Was able to reproduce the cell binding update issue on the Power table that you are seeing will write an internal ticket to keep track of the issue.

Thanks  
Anthony
