If it doesn't explicitly say you are allowed to use more than one robot battery in any case (whether for power purposes or not), then it is safe to assume it is not legal.
From what I understand in this situation the multiple batteries on a robot was deemed legal by the inspectors(this may be wrong).

I wouldn't be surprised that next year a rule will be created/changed to include one battery on the robot at any time but until then, this is a very grey area.
