| Question | Can I change the Data Type of a Tag Name's assigned Address String (PLC Address)? |
| Answer | Yes, but only if the Tag is used on no more than one object. If it is currently used by more than one object, you must: a. assign the other objects to a new or different tag(s)—or delete those objects b. change the data type of the PLC Address under Setup > Tag Database c. re-assign the other objects to the original tag as necessary |
