When the monitor powers on but shows only a black screen with no logo appearing, disconnecting any connected level device may resolve the issue.
A black screen with powered-on buttons could indicate the device is stuck in a software upgrade standby mode, which normally requires simultaneous pressing of MENU and POWER buttons to access.
Backlight failure can occur where the monitor functions internally but the display appears almost completely black, and this may sometimes resolve itself through repeated power cycling and menu navigation.
Shining a bright flashlight at the screen can help diagnose whether a backlight failure is the problem by revealing a faint image.
Internal components working loose inside the housing can cause display failures and may require physical inspection and repair by the manufacturer.
Firmware reinstallation followed by factory reset and repeated firmware updates has resolved display issues in some cases.
Software issues may require access to a computer for firmware troubleshooting and may necessitate sending the monitor to the manufacturer for replacement if other solutions fail.

The thread describes troubleshooting attempts rather than confirmed root causes.
Most solutions suggested are either speculative or anecdotal from individual experiences.
No definitive fix was confirmed within the thread discussion.
