I've set the "Client Poll Rate" to 50 I assume that's 50ms, but the tags seem to update ever second. I've recorded the time stamp and also timed how long a tag stays on and there is up to a half a second difference, and every time stamp has roughly the same milliseconds.

I'm not using the vision module, I'm just trying to get it to record data to an SQL server.

You want to change the Tag Group properties for the group that the tag is a part of: [Tag Groups | Ignition User Manual](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/platform/tags/tag-groups)

How are you logging the data? That may have more of a bearing then getting the tag to update faster in the gateway.

It looks like that was it, thanks.

Also keep in mind that the designer doesn't try to update its tag browser as fast as some tags can run. You really have to look at the destination to see if you are getting the storage behavior you need.
