I found there was *just* enough time. When you're at that control panel to the left, with the two robots approaching you, wait until just the last moment to hit the control and then duck in the hiding place. The instant they're past, come out and get down to the controller on the right, then the left, and immediately back up the ladder.
If you've already done that as tightly as that, then try restarting the program with a lower resolution, and see if you're suddenly able to do it.
