Here is what I have found:  
Brought into the tag browser as an array I cannot write to or address individual bits. All I can do is read them. Correct?

If I create a normal integer tag and append the path name with a “.(bit address)” then I am able to read and write to that specific address. Is this the best way to address or specify individual bits within an Allen Bradley DINT tag?
