The Direct Connect section displays the selected USB port and selects the computer's USB port to which
the ELITEpro XC is connected.
ELOG 15 is equipped with a feature called Friendly Ports™. ELOG displays available Windows COM ports
with easy-to-understand device descriptions enabling you to find the appropriate port quickly and easily.
The Port Preferences option is used to hide COM Ports from ELOG, to change the order of COM Ports as
they appear in the dropdown control, and how they are searched when ELOG can't connect to a logger
on the desired port.
Ports that are unchecked will be hidden from ELOG. Ports are listed and searched in the order shown.
The order can be changed by selecting a port and moving it up or down.
Every time ELOG connects to a logger, its port is moved to the top of this list.
The Use Legacy Logger interface checkbox defaults to unchecked, and the ELOG software will only
display features and menu items relevant to the current software and hardware release. Select the
checkbox and click Save Changes to enable legacy menu items for customers using older legacy products
(ELITEpro).
The Enable Auto Launch of ELOG checkbox defaults to enable the Auto Launcher, which launches ELOG
(if not already open) when an ELITEpro SP or ELITEpro XC or newer ELITEpro is connected to a USB port.
When not checked, it disables the feature and hides the Auto Launcher icon in the system tray.
Connecting a compatible logger to a USB port while ELOG is already running will still result in ELOG
connecting to it automatically (if not already connected to another logger).
Update Logger Firmware (ELITEpro
XC only)
If you receive a message when attempting to communicate between the ELOG software and the logger
stating, "The connected logger has firmware that is older than this version of ELOG supports, and may
not operate properly with this version of ELOG" refer to Appendix A to update the ELITEpro XC
firmware.
