INTRODUCTION
The ELITEpro XC is a powerful and versatile tool for pinpointing electric usage and quantifying energy
usage. It is capable of measuring, storing, and analyzing consumption data including Volts, Amps, Watts,
Volt-Amps (VA), Volt-Amps reactive (VAR), Kilowatts (kW), Kilowatt Hours (kWh), KVAh, kVARh, and
Power Factor of an electrical load or an entire building. Analog input channels are especially helpful
when used in conjunction with power measurements to correlate the consumption of electricity with
environmental, HVAC plant performance or other process conditions. The ELITEpro XC also offers some
power quality features such as the ability to view in real-time voltage, current, and power waveforms
and calculate harmonics to the 63rd order.
The ELITEpro XC is line-powered from the service being measured, eliminating the need for external
power or space-consuming batteries at the job site. The measurements are stored in on-board, non-
volatile memory in a time series format at an interval selected by the user. The ELITEpro XC can be
mounted anywhere with its magnetic back and is small enough to be secured inside the electrical panel.
The Windows-based ELOG software package is used to setup the meter, display metered values, and
retrieve and analyze the collected data. ELOG graphically displays recorded data, performs analysis and
facilitates automatic remote data collection. Data is also easily exported to popular spreadsheet and
database programs for additional analysis.
The ELITEpro XC™requires a computer and ELOG™ software for setup, data retrieval, and data analysis.
Download and test the software prior to the field installation of the logger.
If your installation is using ELOG with legacy devices, contact DENT Instruments for a prior version of this
manual.
New Features
What’s new in the ELITEpro XC and ELOG 14 software? A number of new features, some standard, some
optional, have been added.
Added Scan button to the WiFi Setup dialog to let user pick a network from a list.
Fixed issue where field validation of WiFi setup ignored DHCP.
Sends correct antenna source when configuring WiFi.
Removes analog channel labels if all channels off.
Reset analog channel values to default when channel type is changed.
Increased number of columns that can be graphed at one time.
Various minor bug fixes when graphing, AutoLaunch, etc.

SECTION I: INSTALLING, SETTING UP, AND USING THE
ELITEpro XC™
IMPORTANT: DO NOT CONNECT THE ELITEpro XC TO YOUR COMPUTER UNTIL YOU HAVE INSTALLED ELOG 14
Install the ELOG Software on the Computer
Complete this step prior to installation and ascertain that communication between the ELITEpro XC and
PC is established before going into the field.
NOTE: The new path for Data files in ELOG 14 is: C:\ Users\UserName\Documents\DENT\ELOG\Data
ELOG is compatible with Windows® 7 (32 or 64 bit), Windows® 8 (32 or 64 bit), Vista (32 or 64 bit) or XP.
1) Insert the ELOG CD into the CD/DVD drive.
The installer starts automatically. If it does not, browse to the CD and locate the ELOGInstaller.exe
program. Start the installer by double-clicking ELOGInstaller.exe.
-OR-
Insert the ELOG USB memory stick into the USB port.
Browse to the memory stick and locate the ELOGInstaller.exe program. Start the installer by double-
clicking ELOGInstaller.exe.
2) Follow the directions on the screen to install the software.
NOTE:When ELOG is installed, another program, AutoPoll, is also installed. AutoPoll may be used for
unattended and automatic data retrieval from a number of remote loggers where the computer calls the
loggers. See Appendix D—AUTOPOLL: Unattended Calling from the PC to the Logger.
3) Install the ELITEpro XC Driver on your computer.
a) Connect the USB cable to a USB port on your computer, inserting the other end in the USB port
on the ELITEpro XC (Hint: Look for this USB symbol: ). If a USB cable is to be used inside an
electrical panel it must be rated to the appropriate voltage or wrapped in an appropriately rated
insulating sleeve. The DENT-supplied cable does not meet this requirement without an
insulating sleeve.

Mount the ELITEpro XC
The ELITEpro XC must be installed in an approved electrical panel or enclosure, following proper
installation practices according to the local electrical codes.
WARNING! Remove the LOGGER from all sources of voltage before mounting.
AVERTISSEMENT! ENLEVEZ L'ENREGISTREUR DE TOUTES LES SOURCES DE TENSION AVANT DE
MONTER.
1) To mount the ELITEpro XC, use the black tab on the end of the case containing the PhaseChek and
voltage lead connections. Using a screw, securely mount the ELITEpro XC near a dedicated circuit
disconnect breaker.
NOTE:Allow adequate space for accessing all ports and connectors. The mounting tab is intended for
short term metering (less than 6 months) and must be subject to monthly monitoring by qualified
personnel to verify the ELITEpro XC or its wiring have not shifted.
To remove the logger,remove the screw and roll the magnets off the cabinet it is mounted to.
NOTE: For temporary, spot load monitoring, the four magnets on the back of the ELITEpro XC case can
be utilized to hold the logger on unpainted metal. The maximum combined weight of the logger and any
attachments the magnets can support with a 4 times safety margin is 18oz (500 gm). The logger must be
attended by the electrician when it is temporarily mounted by the four magnets.
In order to prevent injury upon removal, it is recommended practice to roll the device off, due to the
strength of the magnets.
2) Mark the dedicated circuit as the disconnect for the ELITEpro XC.
“Roll” the device, as seen below.

In: 6-10 Vdc, maximum input of 500 mA
Out: 6 Vdc output, up to 200 mA for powering other external devices
USB connector for high speed downloads, setup, and communication with a computer. The
ELITEpro XC is also powered from the USB connection. If a USB cable is to be used inside an
electrical panel, it must be rated to the appropriate voltage or wrapped in an appropriately
rated insulating sleeve. The DENT-supplied cable does not meet this requirement without an
insulating sleeve.
Ethernet port for connecting the device to a
network.
An external coax connector for a WiFi antenna
may also be present.

Complete the Wiring Connections
The following connections must be completed to install the ELITEpro XC. ALL WORK SHOULD BE
PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN USING PROPER SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: THE ELITEpro XC SHOULD ONLY BE WIRED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. HAZARDOUS
VOLTAGES EXIST.
ATTENTION: LE ELITEpro XC ne doit être branché QUE par un personnel qualifié. TENSIONS
DANGEREUSES sont présentEs.
CT CONNECTIONS
NOTE:Use only inherently safe 333mV output CTs supplied by DENT. Never use current output CTs. The
UL listing covers the use of the following DENT Instruments CTs that are UL Recognized and have been
evaluated to IEC 61010-1:
CT-HSC-020-X (20A Mini), CT-HSC-050-X (50A Mini), CT-HMC-0100-X(100A Midi), and the CT-HMC-0200-
X (200A Midi). The use of any other CT will invalidate the UL Listing of the ELITEpro XC.
1) Connect the CTs to the channel(s) on the ELITEpro XC labeled CH 1, CH 2, CH 3 and CH 4. The CT
leads need to be connected to the terminal block using a small screwdriver. For RōCoils, also
connect the shield (bare) wires to the right-most ground terminal marked “S” (shield).
2) Place the CTs on the phase wires of the load to be monitored and corresponding to the phase of the
voltage loads. The CTs must be placed as follows for each channel:
Left connector pin is the positive or high-side wire
Right pin is the negative or low-side
When using DENT Instruments current transformers, connect them as follows:
Split-core CTs (removable leg)—the white CT wire is (+) and the black wire is (-).
Clamp-on CTs (clothes-pin type)—the red wire is positive (+) and the black wire is negative (-).
RōCoil CTs (flexible, Rogowski-style)—the white CT wire is (+) and the brown wire is (-). If you
are using RōCoil CTs, be sure to connect the bare wire to the “S” (shield) screw terminal.This
reduces interference and improves the accuracy of the CT.
