Abstract: A method for operating a machine adapted to transport a load during a work cycle is disclosed. The method includes determining a first stationary state of the machine, and causing sensors to start transmission of first signals. The first stationary state corresponds to a first segment of the work cycle, and the first signals indicate a weight of the load during the first segment. Further, the method includes determining a moving state of the machine corresponding to a second segment of the work cycle, and causing the sensors to terminate transmission of the first signals. Furthermore, the method includes determining a second stationary state of the machine, and causing the sensors to start transmission of second signals. The second stationary state corresponds to a third segment of the work cycle, and the second signals indicate a weight of the load during the third segment.

Abstract: A method for providing display redundancy on a machine is provided. The machine includes a first display configured to perform a first set of functionalities associated with one or more operations of the machine and a second display configured to perform a second set of functionalities associated with the one or more operations of the machine, the second set of functionalities being different from the first set of functionalities. The method includes detecting, by a controller, failure of the first display. The method further includes executing, by the controller, at least a subset of the first set of functionalities on the second display along with at least a subset of the second set of functionalities, when the failure of the first display is detected.
