My monitor wont start - Nitro

I recently purchased an Acer LCD Nitro monitor to use for my laptop but it will not turn on. From what I understand, I simply need to connect the HDMI cable to my laptop but the monitor screen remains black while the sound playing from my laptop disappears. Any ideas what the issue could be? I'm using a 3.0 hdmi to usb converter.

    What laptop do you have? Many USB-C designs don't have video out on them.
