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.
Connect your digital LED strip to the header. There are 12V and 5V digital
LED strips. Be sure to verify the voltage requirements of your digital LED
strips and set the DLED_V_SW1 and DLED_V_SW2 jumpers accordingly.
The power pin (marked with a triangle on the plug) of the LED strip must
be connected to Pin 1 of the digital LED strip header. Incorrect connection
may lead to the damage of the LED strip.
