What is the best way to record the pendant for an online demonstration? Ideally, we would like to be able to control the robot from the pendant like usual, but be able to share a screen of what is happening on the pendant as well.

e-Series robots have a Mini-DisplayPort connector inside the control box. this can be used to broadcast a duplicate of the TP screen onto a TV.

If you’re okay with a slightly reduced frame rate, you can install VNC and share the window:

On google I have found that someone has solved this issue installing a VNC server on the controller. Is this the “official” way? Does the installation of the VNC server have some impacts on the controller performances? Thanks!

This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
