There are several power settings available to get the best experience using Windows
10/11 Pro or Enterprise on Surface Hub 2. This includes screen and pc timeouts and how
they interact with the built-in human presence detection (Doppler), the screen saver and
password protection, and then if appropriate how to by-pass group policy power
settings intended for laptop / desktop users.
Windows 10/11 Pro or Enterprise on Surface Hub 2 keeps the screen from going to
sleep by touch, mouse, and keyboard actions, as well as the built-in human occupancy
detection (Doppler). Human occupancy detection is enabled by default, but if desired it
can be disabled in UEFI by toggling the device option in the Surface UEFI Configurator
tool either as part of the initial migration, or by building and applying a later UEFI
configuration package.

and the PC to
Turn off after 4 hours.
