[ReadyNAS316] Blank HDMI output.
Hi, :)
I'm trying to console login to my ReadyNAS 316, but I just got black screen on my LCD monitor connected via HDMI port.
Of course, I connected USB keyboard and it seems to work.(pushing NumLock, CapsLock, toggles LED correctly.)
But typing any key, HDMI output seems to keep blank.
My LCD monitor & HDMI cable works well when connecting the cable to my laptop.
Is it my hardware problem ? :(
How about on yours ?
I thought it shows console when connected HDMI, like the post below,
is there any settings to enable HDMI output ??

My bios version seems to be 4.6.5.
bios_date=03/23/2013

Yes. I've tried several times. - benokAspirantHi, It suddenly works perfectly now.
I can see AMI bios message on boot & can log in to console.
I tried again about 10 days ago, it worked !
I tried several times, and it didn't be blank output again.
I don't know why it doesn't work before,
but I'm satisfied that it doesn't seem to be my NAS's hardware problem. :D
