A lamellar die apparatus for extruding a heated liquid into filaments and directing air at the filaments. A commit master switch initiates an update operation using a four-phase process that provides for the automatic fail-over to a second switches if the commit master should not complete the update operation. Generally, a monitor wafer is not assigned a rot name or a wafer name, however, the measured result is assigned an identification name for identifying plural processing apparatuses from one another, and is stored in a database as storage data. A glide housing is attached to one end of the handle and lock lifter rods to allow the handle and lock lifter rods to slide on the tracks of the track assembly. In other embodiments, data is simultaneously sent over multiple channels of terminal server connection. A first coupler is adapted to be coupled with a second coupler provided with the first another container.
