Enabling tracing to display each step as it executes is useful for debugging but adds significant performance overhead to the execution of test programs in the TestStand Sequence Editor and in the TestStand Semiconductor Module (TSM) operator interface. TSM automatically disables tracing for operator interfaces. Typically, you do not need to disable tracing unless a custom operator interface enables tracing.

Complete the following steps to disable tracing from the sequence editor.

1. Select Configure » Station Options to launch the Station Options dialog box.
2. On the Execution tab, disable the Enable Tracing option.
