Chapter 1 System Overview
System Description
The MPRX is a reader that supports Association of American Railroads (AAR) formatted tags and
TransCore’s high-performance Super eGo® (SeGo) radio frequency identification (RFID) technology.
The MPRX is a high-power unit that reads both full frame and half frame tags. The reader output power can
be adjusted using reader commands.
The MPRX 10-7200-001 and 10-7210-001 can multiplex up to four antennas, which allows a single reader
to be used for two tracks. The MPRX can support up to two AT5720 Check Tags. Model 10-7200-001
for onboard applications can be powered with a wide range DC input v12-110 VDC (+24-110 VDC
EN50155). Model 10-7210-001 for wayside applications can be powered with a wide range DC input
voltage (+12-110 VDC).
The MPRX 10-7200-002 and 10-7210-002 are single port readers that have no multiplexing capabilities.
For the Onboard MPRX, the customer will need to supply their own voltage for tag lock (dry contact) with
external voltage for tag lock relay. The wayside MPRX requires 5V for tag lock.

Operational Modes
The MPRX reader can operate in several modes, depending on the application. All modes are read-only.
ATA:
This mode is compatible with AAR rail tags, and many toll and access control tags. It is particularly
useful where the tag population is under extreme control, allowing only one tag in the antenna field at a
time, such as the rail environment.
SeGo:
This mode has applications mainly in the toll and access control environment.
The operational mode of the reader is limited by the firmware load, and also by enabling or disabling the
modes using the appropriate #4NN commands, as defined in
