DOT·6 Quick Start Guide
Thanks for your NIXlabs purchase! For the full user's guide, please visit
https://nixlabs.com.au/support/.
Getting Started
Check the box for the following items and remove them from their packaging:
DOT·6 binary neon clock
Multi-region power adaptor
Micro USB computer connection cable
For use in countries other than Australia, remove the AU plug from the power adaptor,
and replace with the correct one for your region (US, EU or UK).
Plug the power adaptor's micro-USB end into your clock through the hole in the back. It
will only go around one way - with the embossed USB logo facing up.
Connect the power adaptor to the wall outlet and turn on, your clock should turn on in
less than about 3 seconds, and is now ready to use.
When powering from a computer, connect directly to the computer's USB port – do not
use USB hubs or extension cables.
Reading the Display
Each tube has four neon bulbs representing the binary sequence 1, 2, 4 and 8 from the
bottom to top respectively. Thus, values from 0 to 9 are shown as a combination of these
bulbs with zero being indicated by no lit bulbs. For examples, refer to the full user guide.
Using the Online Web App
Connect your clock to your PC, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, or Android device using the
included micro USB cable.
Now use the Chrome web browser to go to
https://app.nixie.com.au/, where the complete range of your device's settings can be
easily changed for maximum customisation. However, many of these settings can be set
using the three built-in buttons, so use of the WebApp is not required.
