Synchronizing a tablet and keyboard (select products only)
For a tablet with a detachable keyboard, when you attach the tablet to the keyboard and restart
the computer, Setup Utility (BIOS) checks to see if the Embedded Controller firmware on the keyboard needs
to be synchronized. If so, synchronization begins. If the synchronization is interrupted, a notification screen
displays for 10 seconds before the tablet restarts and attempts to synchronize again.
NOTE:
The Embedded Controller firmware will synchronize ONLY if the tablet or keyboard battery is more
than 50% charged, or if your tablet is connected to AC power.
