Page 5: Introduction
Doc# 041308 INTRODUCTION AWID's Sentinel-Sense MPR-2010AR is a long-range (12 to 15 feet) Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) reader with RS-232 I/O interface that works with most leading UHF passive tags. This reader comes with a unique combination of long read range, small size, and low power consumption. - Page 6 Such dual-antenna design becomes problematic in a mobile environment, where signal strength is not easily controlled. A AWID PROPRIETARY...

Page 7: Special Features
12 inches, the reflected transmitter signal at the receiver input can be as high as 13dBm, thereby eliminating any advantage of the dual-antenna design. In actual circuit implementation, AWID developed a proprietary circuit to duplicate the functions of the circulator, with improved directivity and isolation. COUPLER... -

Page 9: Measuring Read Distance
When measuring the reader’s read range, make sure that the tag is properly oriented to the reader antenna, and for optimum performance, be sure the operator’s finger is not within three (3) inches of the tag’s antenna surface. AWID PROPRIETARY... -
Page 10: Installation & Operation Guidelines
3.4 GENERAL WIRING REQUIREMENTS All the reader wiring should be continuously shielded. AWID recommends using #24 AWG up to #22 AWG, longer distances and higher current consumption on the power supply line will require larger gauge wires. PG I/O output are standard access industry Wiegand drivers, which is capable of 500 feet driving distance. -

3 dB, this will cause the antenna pattern to deviate from a true circle. AWID’s antenna has a horizontal to vertical differential of typically less than 0.5 dB, making its pattern as near to a circle as possible. -
Page 13: Mounting Considerations
• Antenna pattern can be affected by RFI and other environmental conditions. 4.2.3 Mounting Considerations Antenna Mounting Bracket Also available from AWID is an optional antenna-mounting bracket (part # LRMB) that provides antenna tilt adjustment and pan adjustment. Photo at right shows how the reader is mounted onto the LRMB. -
Page 14: Software Programming And System Operation Notes
5.1 SYSTEM OPERATION 5.1.1 Running a Custom Software Application or the AWID Demo Program If AWID Demo Program is not used, it is expected user will launch a Custom Software Application developed using the MPR Serial Communication Protocol to send to reader the commands as defined by the protocol. -
Page 15: Users Note
For Demo Software Users If you are using the AWID demonstration software application which is .NET based with easy-to-follow GUI operations, simply select the COM port for which the reader is configured then click Connect should get you started.
