Default Workstation won't start after enabling POST

Hello all,

to perform the power on self-test on my Blade 1000, I entered at the
system prompt
setenv diag-switch? true
setenv diag-level = max
and rebooted the system.

The fans started, the LED in the cdrom flashed, but after that nothing
happened anymore.
My monitor did not get any signal and even the LEDs on the USB
keyboard didn't flash.

The "Sun Blade 1000/2000 Service Manual".says that it might take some
time to perform the POST but even after more than 1h nothing has
changed.

The manual also says that I should have set up an TIP connection which
I surely would have done if I had read the manual before

Has anybody an idea what I can do to use the system again?

Powering off an on, pressing Stop and Stop-N, deconnecting monitor and
keyboard and trying to connect via serial interface - nothing gave me
the system prompt.

Thanks,
Christoph
