ACL 360i - Idiots guide to setup 2 of these units for Mobile DJ setup

GazzaMember

I recently bought a couple of the Elation ACL 360i units from eBay.

I could do with the easiest way to set them both up to move in synchro with each other.

Either via a DMX controller or via a laptop pc.

CURRENTLY i have not even seen the lights working. i mean they self test the moving of the heads but no lights.

Hope they are working. thought there may be some sort of Demo mode built into the menu system to test them.

anyhow - any help for a NOOB would be very much appreciated.

I realise I'll need to purchase a controller of some sort. but what is cheapest option for a 2 unit setup. Lan or DMX ?

Hi, to get to any sort of auto modes grab a copy of the user manual online and it will tell you how to set them to that function in the manual.
The LAN will only really work if you have a DMX controller or console with a Ethernet/Artnet function, of which the cost will be greatly higher to have than a typical DMX software package and hardware.
You could be perfectly fine running this off of a basic DMX controller board such as the ADJ DMX FX512: https://www.adj.com/dmx-fx512
