Important Information
Important Note:
Thank-you for your purchase! Please make sure your computer hardware and graphics card supports the Nixeus EDG 24"
Monitor. Some devices and connections may not be able to support the full 1920x1080 resolution at 144Hz refresh rates.
Avoid using 3rd party cable adapters/convertors to connect the NX-EDG24 to HDMI and DisplayPort output devices - we
cannot guarantee they will be compatible with the NX-EDG24. Only use cables that are direct connections and not
"convertors". If you are not sure, please contact your computer hardware’s manufacturer. Please read this manual before
using NX-EDG24 with your computer. It contains important information regarding the use and care of computer
monitors.
Safety and Maintenance:
1) Do not expose the monitor to direct sunlight. Keep the monitor away from a stove or any other heat source.
2) Remove or secure any objects that may fall into the monitor’s vents. Do not obstruct or block the cooling vents of the
monitor.
3) Don’t jam the vents on the enclosure.
4) When setting up the monitor for use, please ensure the power plug and socket are easy to insert and extract.
5) When disconnecting the power cord or DC power line for the monitor, please wait for 6 seconds before reconnecting
the power cord or DC power line wires for normal operation.
6) Please use only approved power line and power adapters provided by Nixeus. If any power connections are missing,
please contact Nixeus for a replacement. Using un-authorized power connectors may damage your monitor and void
your warranty.
7) During operation, please do not throw objects and take care to avoid collision with the monitor. Do not overclock or
modify the monitor’s decoder board. Please do not apply excessive force to the LCD panel or drop the monitor.
Warranty does not cover physical damages, over-clocking, and modifications to the monitor.
8) When monitor is not in use for a long period of time, please disconnect the power plug.
9) When using slightly wet cloth or LCD cleaners to clean the monitor, please disconnect the power adapter. Do not use
organic solvent, alcohol, house hold glass cleaners or ammonia liquid to clean the monitor - these may damage the
display panel.
10) Do not store or use monitor in hot, direct sunlight, or in a cold environment. To avoid electrical shock and to prevent
monitor damage; do not use the monitor in dusty, rain, wet, and humid conditions. If monitor gets wet, please wipe
clean with soft dry cloth as soon as possible. If foreign objects or liquids get into the monitor, please disconnect power
adapter immediately. For service please contact Nixeus Technical support for service and repair at
[e-mail]
11) To ensure long life and best performance of the monitor, please use the monitor in these safe and optimum conditions:
Temperature = 0-40 degrees Celsius (32°-95° Fahrenheit), Humidity = 20-80% RH

Avoiding Image Persistence, Incidental Image or After Image:
1) When the monitor is on and unattended, please use a moving screen saver. If there is a static (nonmoving image) on the
screen, please refresh regularly or start an application to start using the screen.
2) Long time continuous display of static images may case a “brand” on the screen; this is also called “image persistence”
or “incidental image” or “after image.” “Brand,” “incidental image” or “after image” is a common phenomenon of LCD
Panel Technology. In most cases, after turning off the power supply for a certain amount of time the “brand,” “incidental
image” or “after image” will gradually disappear. Also by displaying a pure white image for the entire screen for the same
duration that you had the static image that caused the image persistence may remove the image persistence. Please contact
Nixeus if you need assistance in removing image persistence.
CAUTION: Serious “brand,” “incidental image” or “after image” will not disappear and cannot be repaired. This type of
damage is not covered by warranty. Please take good care of your monitor to prevent serious “brand,” “incidental image”
or “after image.”
Larger display panels may have some glow around the edges or corners. This is known as back light bleed and Glow - this
is normal due to the display LED technology that allows more light and higher brightness to produce more vibrant colors
and brighter pictures.
If your monitor needs replacement parts, warranty service, and repairs please do not attempt to do it yourself! Doing so
may void the warranty. Please contact techsuppor[email protected] for warranty support. For more information please visit
