Hello All,

Does anyone know if it is possible to use WriteCfgData to set the filepath for automatic loading of modules? This is with IRC5, Robotware 6.10.

I have many robots that use a different version of a “config.sys” file (config1.sys, config2.sys, configCustom.sys, etc) .

It’s easier to have all the config.sys files in a home folder, then load the file that is actually needed using the “Load” RAPID command. I’d simply also like to set the automatic loading of modules to match.

Hi,

I think that if you read my blog article here:  
[https://www.robot-forum.com/blog/entry/3-a-program-that-can-write-a-program/](https://www.robot-forum.com/blog/entry/3-a-program-that-can-write-a-program/)

You will find examples of what you are asking. Not the same parameters, but very similar task.
