CONNECTING THE D-RGB LED STRIP 

STEP 1

Plug the 

3-pin connector

 of the distribution plate D-RGB LED 

light to the 

D-RGB HEADER

 on the motherboard. The LED will 

work if the pin layout on the header is as follows: 

+5V, Digital, 

Empty, Ground

.

Incorrect installation or installation to a wrong header can 
damage the LED strip or the header itself!

To make sure the installation of EK components was successful, we 
recommend you perform a leak test for 24 hours. When your loop 
is complete and filled with coolant, connect the pump to a PSU 
outside of your system. Do not connect power to any of the other 
components. Turn on the PSU and let the pump run continuously. 
It is normal for the coolant level to drop during this process as air 
collects in the distribution plate. Inspect all parts of the loop, and 
in the eventuality that coolant leaks, fix the issue and repeat the 
testing process. Ensure that all hardware is dry before the system is 
powered on in order to prevent any damage.
