Display Elements
Section titled “Display Elements”The NIX4 uses the following components:
- Four Nixie Tubes: These are the primary digits (0-9), used for all numerical values.
- One Colon Separators (Neon Bulbs): Two small neon bulbs are placed between the hours/minutes digits.
- RGB under-tube LED lighting: Can be used to show a different colour based on the current 'mode' (Time, Date or Temperature)
Display Modes
Section titled “Display Modes”The NIX4 shows time in an Hours:Miutes format. It can be configured to use 12 or 24-hour format with or without a leading zero for hours less than 10. In time mode, the colon separator can be set as solid on, solid off, fast flashing (0.5Hz) or slow flashing (1Hz).
The NIX4 can show the date in a Day.Month (default) or Month.Day format. In date mode, the lower colon separator is lit to distinguish between the day and month.
Temperature
Section titled “Temperature”The NIX4 shows temperature in a XX.X format in either °C (default) or °F, with a range of 0.0°C to 65.5°C. In temperature mode, the display is left-aligned and the lower colon separator is used as a decimal point.
