TransCore’s Multiprotocol Reader Extreme (MPRX) is a radio frequency
identification (RFID) reader that is specifically designed for harsh
environment applications.
Purpose of This Guide
This guide provides site planning and testing, installing, and operating instructions for
TransCore’s Multiprotocol Reader Extreme (MPRX) System, which reads Association of
American Railroads (AAR) formatted tags and TransCore Super eGo® (SeGo) protocol tags.
Before you begin installing the MPRX, TransCore recommends that you familiarize yourself
with this manual.
Intended Audience
This document is intended for use by authorized TransCore MPRX dealers, installers,
and service personnel. Because the MPRX has no operator or end-user serviceable
components or features, no end-user manual or operator guide exists. Once the system
is set up and tested by the authorized installer, MPRX operation requires no end-user
intervention. Information in this document is subject to change and does not represent a
commitment on the part of TransCore, LP.
