MPR-1510 1 -5- Doc# 041313 INTRODUCTION AWID's Sentinel-Sense MPR-1510 is a long-range (12 to 15 feet) Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) reader module with RS-232 I/O interface that works with most leading passive UHF passive tags. This reader comes with a unique combination of long read range, small size, and low power consumption. The reader module has an internal power converter, allowing it to work with a wide range of supply inputs without affecting its performance.
MPR-1510 -6- Doc# 041313 through the use of a circulator. As shown in Figure 1, there is a 3-port device between the Coupler and the band pass filter, which is called a circulator. A circulator is physically constructed by a permanent magnet, a Y junction on a high-dielectric ferromagnetic substrate, and a ferromagnetic enclosure to complete the flux field. A circulator permits flow of RF energy in one direction only, e.g. from port 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 1.

For ease of explanation, MPR reader in this section refers to an MPR-3014 reader model, i.e., a unit that consists of MPR-1510 (3.2x) inside a splash proof, UV stabilized housing case and high performance circular polarized antenna(s). 3.
MPR-1510 3.4 - 10 - Doc# 041313 GENERAL WIRING REQUIREMENTS All the MPR 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.
