Connecting external devices
USB port with charging function (Anytime USB charge)
USBchargingfunction
It is recommended that the Tablet PC is operated with the power supply connected
whenever the USB port with charging function is in use, as the battery runtime
is reduced if additional USB devices are being charged.
The power supply must already be connected when the Tablet PC is
switched off, as otherwise the USB charging function will not be active and
the connected USB devices will not be charged.
Some USB devices (e.g. mobile phones) need a driver to be able to use the USB
charging function. In this case the USB charging function will not work when the Tablet
PC is switched off, as no drivers are active when the Tablet PC is switched off.
You can use this USB port to charge or supply power to a USB device (e.g. to charge
a PDA or a mobile phone or to connect a USB lamp).
This is also possible even when the Tablet PC is switched off, if in the
BIOS-Setup-Utility
, in
the menu
Advanced
, the function
Anytime USB Charge
is enabled. If the setting
AC
is selected
thereby, the device will only be charged when the mains adapter is connected.
Calling and using the
BIOS Setup Utility
is described in the section
"Settings in BIOS Setup Utility", Page 68
.
