1. A controller, comprising:

  • a memory; and

    a processor configured to;

    access, in the memory, a first elapsed time relative to activation of a first meter module of a metering subassembly when a first pressure within a first header of an agricultural implement reaches a first target pressure;

    access, in the memory, a second elapsed time relative to activation of a second meter module of the metering subassembly when a second pressure within a second header of the agricultural implement reaches a second target pressure, wherein the first pressure is measured via a first pressure sensor at the first header, the second pressure is measured via a second pressure sensor at the second header, and the first and second meter modules are in fluid communication with the first and second headers, respectively;

    control a first actuator to activate the first meter module to enable product flow from a product storage tank through the first elapsed header based at least in part on the first time; and

    control a second actuator to activate the second meter module to enable product flow from the product storage tank through the second elapsed header based at least in part on the second time.
