Hi @Roshan_kumar,
Thanks for getting back to me. I understand you are using a third party HDMI to VGA adapter. I only support the HDMI port.
Is there any why to try to connect to a device with HDMI to test the port. Or you can contact the adapter manufacter.
Please get back to me and I will try to help you.
