Are you trying to change the data type of the point through the CSV importer? To do this, you must supply a valid templateXid for that data type or have all non-CSV-settable attributes set to something which applies to all data types, like the "PLAIN" text renderer.

Yes. I was trying to set them from Binary to 4 Byte Float. I have to add over 400 points. Im trying to figure out a way to not do it manually.

As I mentioned, you could add a template xid into the templateXid column, which would apply that template during the import and permit you to do what you are trying. Your system should have a template with an XID of "Numeric_Default"
