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.
