摘要:
This document discusses, among other things, apparatus and methods for a multi-sectionapplicator having variable¨rate sections. In an example, an apparatus canincludeat least one distribution manifold, a user interface, and an applicatorcontroller. The atleast one distribution manifold distributes a substance and can include aninlet portconfigured to receive the substance, a plurality of outlet ports, one or moresensorslocated at an outlet port, a controllable valve that supplies the substance tothe inlet port.The applicator controller measures a value of the distribution parameter usingthe sensorsignal produced by the at least one sensor of an outlet port, detects when themeasuredvalue differs from a specified target value by more than a specified errorthreshold value,and presents an indication, using the user interface, that the measured valuediffers fromthe target value according to the detection.
