Which video adapter do I need?
To figure out which adapter you need, look at the ports on your TV,
monitor, or projector.
•
HDMI port? Use the HD AV Adapter.
•
No HDMI port? Use the VGA Adapter (the VGA Adapter
transfers video only, not audio).
Note If your monitor has a DisplayPort, you can connect it to Surface using a DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort
cable (sold separately).
Surface video adapters are available online at Surface.com/Accessories.
Connect to a TV, monitor, or projector
1. Connect a cable to the HDM I, DisplayPort, or VGA port on your TV, monitor, or projector.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a Surface video adapter or the M ini DisplayPort on your Surface
(an adapter is needed if the end of your cable doesn’t have a male Mini DisplayPort connector).
3. If you’re using an adapter, plug the adapter into the Mini DisplayPort on Surface.
Set up what’s on your screens
1. Open the Devices charm, and then tap or click Project.
2. Choose one of these options:
•
PC screen only. You’ll see everything on your Surface. (When you're connected to a wireless
projector, this option changes to Disconnect.)
•
Duplicate. You’ll see the same thing on both screens.
•
Extend. You'll see everything spread over both screens, and you can drag and move items
between the two.
•
Second screen only. You’ll see everything on the connected screen, and your Surface screen will
be blank.
Notes
•
Surface Pro 3 includes support for M iracast which allows you to connect to disp lays wirelessly.
