Iconia B1-710 with a DSLR

Hi all,
I am trying to hook up my Iconia B1-710 to my DSLR camera (Canon 60d) to be used as a monitor/screen.

I have tried a couple of different apps from the play store but I can't get anything to work!
I'm using a simple connection mini-to-micro usb via an on-the-go connector but the tablet doesn't even register that something is plugged into it.
I've spent a lot of time internet searching for a solution and have established that it should just work with an app.... but any advice is either inconclusive or way too complicated for me to get my head around!
