I had an issue where 3 SQLtags stopped updating and displayed the green icon with the question mark. All 3 had the value of null.  
The PLC was showing as connected and I found that by altering the address the different value was read then when the original address was put back the tag read as it had been doing for x months with no problem?  
Any reason why this should have occured ![:scratch:](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/1X/76d1620bec252bfac07050c889ff5a91dc8a9c25.gif ":scratch:")  
I am using Ignition 7.5.1  
Secondly, this PLC does get down powered during the week.

You should really upgrade to 7.5.5 since we have made some changes to our drivers.
