When the ELITEpro XC is equipped with the optional WiFi module it may
be used in one of two ways: as a WiFi connection to an existing WiFi
network or in Access Point Mode where the logger connects one-to-one
to a single device such as a laptop or smart phone.
Connection ranges also depend on whether an internal or high-gain
external antenna is used.
ELITEpro XC as its own Access Point
Using the ELITEpro XC as an Access Point "Hot Spot" is probably its most useful mode. As a Hot Spot, the
logger allows one-to-one connection between the meter and a WiFi enabled device such as a laptop

computer, inserting the other end in the USB port on the ELITEpro XC (Hint: Look for this USB

meet this requirement without an insulating sleeve.
2) If it does not launch automatically, start ELOG 14 and connect to the logger.
3) From the ELOG menu, select Logger > Communication > Logger WiFi Setup.... The Logger WiFi Setup
dialog box appears.
