I found this [thread](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/error-writing-to-ok-value-bad-received-when-trying-to-write-to-opc-device-tags/26035/5) that sounds like probably the same problem. They mention turning on Trace-level of logging for _com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway.opcua.client.connection.OpcUaConnection_ but I'm not sure where to find that. I've browsed around a bit in the Server setup webpages but I don't see where I can specify or view logs for specific parts of Ignition. I'll keep looking.
