RAPID variable PM\_PROJECT\_STATUS not correct updated

**PM5.04 with RW 5.11.01:**

This is only a problem for those who will use the new IO interface for controlling a PickMaster5 palletizing project.

PM\_PROJECT\_STATUS is used in the RAPID module that handle project start and project stop from an IO interface. The value is correct set at power on and when the project is stopped but all other status as PMMGR\_PROJECT\_STOPPING, PMMGR\_PROJECT\_STARTING, PMMGR\_PROJECT\_RUNNING and PMMGR\_PROJECT\_ERROR will be set to an undefined value.  
A temporary work around is to replace the RAPID module PmProjMgr.mod, that comes with the PickMaster5 installation with the attached module. PM\_PROJECT\_STATUS is in this module updated with help of a TRAP and the IO signal pmProject\_goStatus.
