  1. Weighing: Place the picked items into the delivery box, along with any packing material which may be required to keep the contents stable and secure. Close the box and weigh the packed box on the scale.

Ensure that the area around the scale is free from debris and that the scale is firmly planted on a flat, solid, level surface during the weighing activity.

Do not continue to the next step until the weight indicated on the scale display is stable (no longer changing).

  1. Enter Weight: Select the Scale icon and enter the weight of the packed delivery box. Weight must be entered in the units of lbs. Ensure that the weight of the delivery box is within the weight limits permitted by the PRISM V2.3 UAFM.
NOTE: The weight should be entered as lbs. If the scale unit is set to lbs and oz, be sure to do the correct conversion for a precise and accurate package weight. (i.e. 4lbs 8oz is equal to 4.5 lbs, not 4.8 lbs).
  1. Approve Weight: Select the “Approve” button once the weight has been entered.

  1. Additional Box: If the order does not fit in a single delivery box, select the “Add Box” button to assign another box to the order. This will require repeating steps 3 through 8 for each additional delivery box.

  1. Scan Delivery Box: Select the order which is being fulfilled. Scan the delivery box by pointing the Zebra scanner at the box’s attached QR code.
NOTE: If there is more than one order in the flight deck stage, choose which order to proceed with by scanning the delivery box.
  1. Scan aircraft: Scan the aircraft to assign the delivery box and order to the aircraft. Point the scanner to the asset tag on the aircraft and press one of the yellow buttons on the side of the scanner device. The asset tag is labeled on the rear portion of the top canopy of the aircraft on the starboard side. It is titled “Property of DroneUp” at the top with a barcode underneath it and below that there will be a A-XXXXXXX designator, where X stands for a numerical value.

  2. Battery Assignment: Open the “Battery Assignment” menu, scan both energy storage devices attached to the aircraft. Once scanned, the “Approve” button will be usable. The crew also has the option to clear out the scanned assets in order to rescan if required.

  3. Ready for Delivery: After the energy storage devices have been scanned, select the “READY FOR DELIVERY” button to proceed. Selecting this option produces a popup to send an energy storage device parameter change and reboot command to the aircraft autopilot. Once the request successfully completes, HubOps moves the order forward to the Piloting tile.
