Had a test jig for the S9 before. It worked fine with S9 and some S17 boards. But now it's just sitting unused. I'm looking for a new jig for S19. Anyone got recommendations?

Check out ZeusBTC’s test fixture, man. It’s been mentioned before here. Almost all Antminers are supported. If you need help with repairs, their site has what you need. Just use the search feature.

Yeah, grab the Zeus fixture but skip the touchscreen version. It's a total disaster. You can also fix the jig with one of their generic S11/15/17 Zynq boards if you need to.

I saw that fixture from ZEUS before but it didn’t say S19 initially, so I overlooked it. Just checked again and S19 is mentioned. Good to know, thanks!

So the touchscreen model is the '2022 new version'? What’s the issue with it? I was thinking about getting either the generic or the new one. Can you explain more?

My touchscreen broke on the first day. The screen doesn’t scroll properly, you have to constantly poke it to see everything. I ended up using a generic S17 board to fix it. It works but has a bunch of quirks. At least it has a board that takes ATX power and runs test fans.

Thanks for the info. I think I’ll go for the generic fixture first and keep an eye out for updates.

I got a standard one from Ebay, not touchscreen. They gave me test files but missing conversion files. Am I missing something? Contacted the seller but no reply yet. Emailed bt-mining too since they sell the same model.
