   A. Loop detectors are disabled and scale is empty with a zero and a green traffic light displayed on the 1280, proceed to Step 2.
   B. Loop detectors are enabled and scale is empty with a zero and a red traffic light displayed on the 1280:
   i. Waiting on Loop Detector displays.
   ii. Drive truck to loop detector.
   iii. Loop detector activates and the system attempts to zero the scale. If successful or at zero, the system displays Enter Scale and a green traffic light.

2. Drive the truck onto the scale and exceed the configurable Threshold weight.

3. (Optional) Select the language button to cycle through available languages (English, French and Spanish).
   NOTE: All translations are configurable in the Language database. After downloading a user program the Language database must be imported using Revolution. If the system displays Language DB Error in the lower left corner, the language database was not imported successfully.
   See 1280 Enterprise™ Series Technical Manual (PN 167659) for information regarding how to import a database.

4. The 1280 validates the Scale Name:
   A. Proceed to Step 5 if the scale message does not display Please Configure a Scale Name – Exit Scale.
   B. Perform the following if the scale message displays Please Configure a Scale Name – Exit Scale:
   i. The driver must exit the scale and the attendant must access the 1280 Setup Menu and configure a Scale Name.
   ii. The attendant selects Scale Name, the 1280 displays a list of Scale Names.
   iii. The attendant selects the required Scale Name and the 1280 is ready to process trucks.

5. If RF the tag reader is set as SmartPass in the Setup Menu, enable SmartPass output activates and the traffic light turns red while the 1280 displays Scan RFID or Enter Truck ID. Perform one of the following:
   A. The RFID (radio frequency identification) was scanned as the truck entered the scale.
   B. Scan the RFID.
   C. Select Enter Truck ID, enter the Truck ID followed by DONE.

6. The 1280 validates the gross weight against the minimum and maximum weights (configured in OnTrak Enterprise).
   A. If the gross weight is less than (<) the configured minimum truck weight, the system displays Truck Underweight:
   • Select Accept and proceed to Step 7.
   • Select Cancel. Exit Scale and a green traffic light display.
   B. If the gross weight is greater than or equal to (>) the Maximum Truck Weight, the system displays Truck Overweight:
   • Select Accept to proceed to Step 7.
   • Select Cancel. Exit Scale and a green traffic light display.

7. Depending on tare type the 1280 performs one the following:
   A. If Keyed Tare Weight or Stored Tare Weight is less than (>) 0, proceed to Step 8 (Outbound Transaction).
   B. If Keyed Tare Weight or Stored Tare Weight is 0, Invalid Truck Tare and a green traffic light displays.
   C. Weighs the truck:
   • The 1280 sends truck inbound data to OnTrak Enterprise. Proceed to Step 9.
   • Inbound data not found, proceed to Step 8 (Outbound Transaction).

8. 1280 displays select Shipping and Receiving buttons. The driver selects Shipping or Receiving and the 1280 sends the information to OnTrak Enterprise. NOTE: Shipping and Receiving text is configurable in Setup.
