After the tips are balanced, the user can enter Operation mode. The system will monitor all the tips and their the flow rate if their respective boom
section is turned on. The flow rate of each tip must be within the percentage range (entered in the Setup mode). If any tip is outside this range,
an error will be generated, and the user will need to inspect the tip that is at fault. The LED on the Tip Sensor Interface (H or I) will also be
illuminated corresponding to the tip or tips that are at fault.
