Read the directions.
Every scale I have ever been to at a truck stop has directions about what you need to do posted either before you pull onto the scale or at the other end once you are on them.
While many scales operate the same way, there are enough exceptions out there where you need to pay attention.
The only constant is that you
NEVER slide you tandems while sitting on the scale.

from what i was told once by someone at a place w/ a cat scale, you have to pull off, or it won't print.

Unless that is some option in the system that is not true. I have been to a few truck stops that have a booth set next to the scales and you take care of everything right there while sitting on the scale. Yes they were CAT scales.
