new one is on firmware 1.13 and the old one is 1.14. if that makes a difference.

Have you check the brightness setting of each lamp in GCC?

Yes, I did.. Both are the same setting under "extra => display"

You have bought one Mitras some time ago and the other one now?
Then it seems that displays of different batches have been built in,
this clarifies why there is a difference in the brightness of the displays.

Regarding our displays, there can be slight differences in appearance.

You can try and change the contrast by opening the front cover and turning
the trimmer carefully with a screw driver.

So, where is the trimmer located on the board?

I can probably figure it out, but it's easier just to ask.

Hi,
I would recommend you to download the maintenance guide.

On page tree is a picture, the middle one between the tree in the center of the page, where you can see the trimmer left to the display.

I tried that. the older/dimmer unit is already turn to almost max from factory, while the new/brighter one is turn the lowest from factory.

I guess I am stuck with it now.
