Please help me.

Just to let you know I am not a OPCUA user.

Looking at your flow json and function code
You are trying to save a INT32 data type, but the function code can produce a float, i.e 9/10 = 0.9. So you get error data type is not the same as value supplied.
Try msg.payload = Math.round(msg.payload / 10); to round the supplied value to an Integer.

There are OPCUA users here they may have a better answer for you.

Thank you for your reply.
I tried the above advise but it didn't work. Though its a small thing but i am not able to solve this,

I appreciate if someone can guide. If you need any further input, feel free to write.
