Removing Snapshot option from Signal Express 2012 LE

[rkinner85]

I have no use for the snapshots generated by this program.  They only serve as something to delete.  Is there a way to remove this from the data aquisition program?

Hello rkinner85, 

I would like to ask if you have any alarming steps being used within your Signal Express application. Typically, a snapshot will only be created by explicitly going to "Operate>>Create Snapshot," however this can also be done programmatically as a configured result of an alarm. To check this, go to the "Recording Options" tab and select "Alarms" in the Category box. From this setting, you will see a drop down box for Alarm Action that will specify which action to take once an alarm occurs. One of the options within the Alarm Action drop down will be to "Create a Snapshot" which may explain why this is being done programmatically. Otherwise, if you could please include a snapshot of your step sequence, this may help in figuring out why snapshots are being generated.
