Removing Daylighting Controls in Open Studio

Hi everyone,

I'm relatively new to Open Studio and am trying to run a large simulation (~90 thermal zones) within the Open Studio Application v 1.0.1. The run times are quite long (~2 hours) and I'm trying to see if I can remove previously-added daylighting controls to speed things up. Does anyone know how to remove daylighting controls from models? I've already tried deleting the controls from the IDF file, but some setting in Open Studio application keeps adding them in. I don't have any measures actively setting Daylighting controls either and I can't find any settings in the UI that explicitly enable daylighting.

Thanks!
