To re-assign a product to a task:
1. Return to the Task Controller Main screen and assign the appropriate
product for the channel.
MULTIPLE CHANNEL CONTROL/SINGLE RATE
When one product is assigned to multiple control channels, the rate at
which the product is dispersed can be divided equally among the bins
(channels) or the full rate can be applied to both bins (channels).
The dispensing method is chosen based on the physical configuration of
the machine and how the channels are arranged such as:
Divide Equally among Bins (channels):
• A parallel configuration (front to back)
Full Rate to Both Bins (channels):
• A configuration that each channel covers a unique area in the field.
