Thank you for reading my post.

I have this 4 digits 13 segment display which I wanted to use it as a count down but I can't find any information about how to wire it and use it.

Thanks in advance and your time.

If it is an LED display, take a 5-9VDC supply, a 1kΩ series resistor and start probing every pair of contact in both directions.

Eventually, you will find:

1) The common pin for each of the four digits
2) Whether it is common anode or common cathode
3) The connection for each segment and d.pt.

I can help a little and point you in the right direction. The manufacturer is LiteOn. They make a lot of LED products. I couldn’t find this in an active list. You might want to contact them directly for a datasheet. Basically it’s similar to below diagram you need to first determine whether it’s common anode or common cathode. Btw you have a 16 segment display. 14 plus clock points.
