Subject: If project is set after connecting to controller, Robot Manager shows wrong point values

Symptoms
When using SpelNetLib, if you set the project after connecting to the controller, the points shown on the Robot Manager points tab are correct, but the points in the controller are not updated. This is because the project has not been built and sent to the controller yet.

Causes
This is caused by a bug in EPSON RC+ 5.0.

From VB:

1. Call Connect

2. Set Project

3. Execute RunDialog for RobotManager

Remedy
After setting the project, execute a command that requires the project to be built, such as SetVar. When the command executes, the project will be built first.

Status
This problem is fixed in EPSON RC+ v5.2.0 SP1.
