How do I export payload information to place into another robot in Roboguide. These robots will be running the payloads and I'd hate to have to configure them all over again. R-2000iB/210F running 7.70.
How to Copy Payload Information to another Robot

Try the SYSVARS.SV file, e.g. from an AoA backup.
-
That is correct, bear in mind that the SYSVARS.SV file contains many more things. If you are not sure, I would recommend to manually type in the payload data.
-
Just make sure to take an image first and you should be fine.
Murphy's law says you'll be sure to need it if you don't.

You could set them from a TP program.

Nation's method is a great way to do it. No risk of loading sysvars.
I will be using this method going forward.
Even if I only have to do it once or twice during commissioning, I'll never again have to press F4 for YES to the seven prompts of:
"Path and Cycletime will change. Set it?"
