Touchback: Lets you control your connected laptop, tablet, or phone from the Surface Hub
touchscreen.
Inkback: When you project an app that supports inking to Surface Hub, any markups done on the
Surface Hub screen appear in the file on the device you're using to project. For example, if someone
circles a paragraph in a Word doc on the Surface Hub screen, that circle appears in the file on the
tablet you used to project the file. If you save the file on the tablet, you also save the circle around the
paragraph.
Connections can be wireless or wired.
Wireless Connect
If your phone, laptop, or tablet supports Miracast, you can project your screen wirelessly to your Surface
Hub. Here’s how, if you’re using Windows 8 or later:
1. Press the Start key +K or open the Action center and select Connect.
2. Select the name of your Surface Hub from the list that appears.
3. If prompted, enter the PIN that appears on the touchscreen.
For other types of devices, check the manufacturer’s website for instructions.
Wired Connect
If your system admin has set up a wired connection to the Surface Hub, you can connect by plugging a
cable into your laptop or tablet.
Plug in the video cable that works with your device (DisplayPort, HDMI, or VGA).
If you want to use Touchback and Inkback, plug in the USB 2.0 cable.
If you're using a VGA cable and you want to include audio, plug in the 3.5mm audio cable.
Conduct a meeting
All activities and sessions on your Surface Hub are considered meetings, either ad-hoc or scheduled.
Aside from scheduling, there’s no difference between them. All of your Surface Hub’s features and
applications are available in both.
You can use Skype for Business to invite remote participants during any meeting. See Add participants
during a meeting, below.
NOTE To join a meeting with Surface Hub, remote participants may need to download software and
set up an account to use Skype for Business. For details, see Skype Downloads on skype.com.
