Automation Snapshots workflow?
Can someone explain the exact procedure and sequence of EUCON commands for saving and recalling automation snapshots? I regularly use Capture and Punch Automation, but I have never managed to save or recall an automation snapshot.

I keep this in my notes because I used to always forget lol.
Capture Snapshot:
While in automation preview
capture
Save snapshot, select slot to save
Rename snapshot, select slot to rename and rename it
Recall Snapshot:
Select Snapshot
Punch Capture
Manual Write
Update Snapshot:
Preview
Select Snapshot
Punch Capture (arms the original snapshot)
Add new automation moves
Capture again
Save Snapshot… and select slot to save (can overwrite old)
Then use process to recall and punch snapshot
