Preload value don't work

Question

I'm using the DatePicker control on an edit form and I need to preload whit the model value.

Using this way:

@Html.EJS().DatePicker("LastDeparture").Value(Model.LastDepartureDate).Render()

, or this way:

@Html.EJS().DatePickerFor(model => model.LastDepartureDate, new Syncfusion.EJ2.Calendars.DatePicker { Value = Model.LastDepartureDate}).Render()

, I got the same result on UI, a blank editor:

Am I missing something?
