Now, let’s
manually edit the file to change the order of shutdown for ports 1 and 2. This is an
optimization trick; the WQM (port 1) requires a significant amount of time to shut down due to the
delay for the bleach injection system, so we should turn off the ISUS (port 2) first to save some power.
This is not necessary, it is just an optimization! Rather than typing, simply use the search and replace
fea
ture of your text editor to replace “
-1 -2
–V” with “
-2 -1
–V”, as shown below. You may also wish
to add a comment, starting with #, to describe what you’ve done.
