Hi trevor-calgary,

The Dell XPS 10 tablet cannot be charged via the USB ports on the keyboard dock however, the tablet supports trickle charge via the micro-USB port.

Thanks & Regards

Hi trevor-calgary,

Thank you for the reply.

The following table provides the LED behavior based on the type of power adapter connected and available battery charge.

Hope it helps.

Thanks Manshu.....      will the white indicator light be on when plugged into the micro-USB port ?  

Hi Trevor-calgary,

Thank you for the reply.

Please provide the following details:

1. Are you trying to charge the tablet from USB port of a desktop or laptop?
2. In case you are trying to charge it from USB port of a desktop or laptop, let me know if the USB port is functioning properly.

Thanks & Regards

i have tried it from boththe docking station and the Latitude's USB port.    when I plug the micro-USB into the XPS the screen dims for a second or two and then returns to full brightness.  But the white indicator LED does not light.  

The XPS 10 does indeed support charging via the micro USB port, but keep in mind that it will take significantly longer than the included AC adapter (~24 hours) to fully charge the battery.   The LED should turn on solid white if the battery is at a state <100%.    It sounds like your micro USB port may not be working, or you have a bad cable.   I'd suggest you try the included microUSB to USB dongle with a memory key to see if that works.   If it does, try another cable for charging.   Always a good idea to try a couple cables to eliminate that as the possible cause.   If it still isn't working, you'll probably need to get the device serviced or exchanged as the port is likely bad.   Note that the docking staton can't be charged via the USB ports on it.
