Abstract
An agricultural applicator system is provided herein that includes a boom assembly and one or more nozzles positioned along the boom assembly. The one or more nozzles are configured to selectively dispense an agricultural product therefrom. A sensor is operably coupled with the boom assembly and is configured to capture data associated with one or more application variables. A controller is commutatively coupled to the sensor and includes a processor and associated memory. The memory stores instructions that, when implemented by the processor, configure the controller to receive the data associated with one or more application variables and provide a notification when the data associated with one or more application variables are outside of a range defined by a predefined lower and upper threshold. The controller may also pause an application operation of the agricultural product until the notification is acknowledged by an operator.
