Setup 1: Huion Kamvas 13 + Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra

The following setup below worked for me.

  • For this setup, I used a Microsoft Surface Thunderbolt 4 Dock

  • Samsung S8 Ultra connected to the dock via the dock's attached Thunderbolt 3 cable

  • Huion Kamvas top USB-C port connected with Huion 3-in-1 cable:

    • 3-in-1 cable red USB-A end (for power) connected to dock.

    • 3-in-1 cable black USB-A end (for data ) connected to dock.

    • 3-in-1 cable HDMI end not connected

  • Huion Kamvas 13 lower USB-C port connected to the USB-C port on dock using a Thunderbolt 3 cable.

Step 2: Samsung Galaxy S9 FE

Samsung Galaxy S9 FE does not work with an external monitor. Because of this, I was unable to get it to work a pen display.
