Title: Adjusting the contrast of the Antminer S2 LCD screen Post by: btcmner on May 21, 2014, 07:24:15 PM Often, Antminer S2 come with an LCD screen which is very bright and difficult to read because of lack of contrast.
Here is how to adjust the contrast : First, gently peel off the front "Antminer" label covering the screen : https://i.imgur.com/fQKUHqS.jpg Then you'll notice three tiny holes around it. The hole in lower right position contains a very small pot, which you can adjust using a precision "+" screwdriver : https://i.imgur.com/WdDwPmK.jpg And that's it ! You know have the perfect quality picture you've always dreamed of ! https://i.imgur.com/YW4KgaA.jpg All you have to do then is to put back the "antminer" label you gently peeled off at the beginning : it should be still sticky enough. You can then go back to your regular occupation. Easy... ;) Title: Re: Adjusting the contrast of the Antminer S2 LCD screen Post by: TheRealSteve on May 21, 2014, 10:18:36 PM Makes me wonder if they weren't properly set before leaving the factory, given that they clearly intended for it to be incidentally adjustable :) Good find though

My batch 2 miners are as bright today as they were on day 1. I think I'm being overly optimistic that this pot will affect the Batch 1s. But here's hoping, Thanks!
