Before installing the devices, be sure to turn off the devices and your computer. Unplug the power
cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the devices.
For how to turn on/off the lights of the RGB (RGBW) LED strip, refer to the instructions on in
Chapter 2, "BIOS Setup."
Connect one end of the included RGB (RGBW) LED strip extension cable
to the header and the other end to your RGB (RGBW) LED strip. The black
wire (marked with a triangle on the plug) of the extension cable must be
connected to Pin 1 (12V) of this header. The 12V pin (marked with an arrow)
on the other end of the extension cable must be lined up with the 12V of
the LED strip. Be careful with the connection orientation of the LED strip;
incorrect connection may lead to the damage of the LED strip.
