Both the Caterpillar 980 and Cat 982 have Cat Payload with Assist that provides an accurate weighing of bucket payloads, so operators can load to target. It includes low-lift-weigh and manual tip-off functions. Optional Cat Advanced Payload expands functionality with Lists-Management, Multitask- and Manual-Add Modes, and Tip-off assist. Compatible with third-party scale house software, it can wirelessly integrate the machine in the scale-house process with Dispatch-for-Loading.
