Abstract
In some implementations, a controller may receive a command to adjust a setting of the screed assembly. The controller may obtain temperature data from one or more sensor devices of the screed assembly. The controller may determine, based on the temperature data, a corresponding temperature of one or more components of the screed assembly. The controller may selectively cause the setting to be adjusted or preventing the setting from being adjusted based on the corresponding temperature of the one or more components, the setting being adjusted based on determining that the corresponding temperature satisfies a temperature threshold, or the setting being prevented from being adjusted based on determining that the corresponding temperature does not satisfy the temperature threshold.
