Question what plugs in where ??

[Sean_50]

Hi guys, built a new pc, got a b550 gig gaming x v2, could never get the lights to work with the rgb software, so Ive bought a light controller card with a remote so i can control it from that, Ive asked the gut on eBay who sold it me to let me know what goes,s where, but he wasn't very helpful, Ive added the schematics pages and the image of the controller, just don't know what go,s where, Ive always had a 2 pin wire leading from the front panel, im assuming that's for the light display on the front of the case, and there is a 2 pin connector next to the sata power connector, can someone explain where i add first rgb connectors, i intend on having 3 color fans on top of case and 1 on back of front of case and a non color one reversed on back of case to take out the hot air ,
cheers
Sean,

Sounds like you are trying to enable ARGB. I made two mid-life crisis RGB PC's. Oh look at the pretty lights got old. Great stuff if you're in your 20's to mid-thirties. 70 here!

No labels on the light controller board, but I can tell you how many such units work. The edge connector for power input by a SATA power output connector from the PSU is obvious. I SUSPECT that the wire coming down from your front panel lighting control button goes to the 2-pin connector next to the SATA power input. Each of the LIGHTING cables (not talking about the motor cables) of the fans goes to one of the RGBnn ports of the board.

On the opposite end there is a 3-pin ARGB input connector. You use that to run a 3-pin ARGB cable from it to one of you mobo's DLEDn headers. This allows you to have the board turn over lighting control to your mobo. In that mode you use the utility RGB Fusion supplied with your mobo to make adjustments. Usually this offers many more display options.

Most boards like this have two ways to do control, but yours may have three. One is to use the manual button on your case front to step though several pre-set displays the board can do. In your case, since you have a manual hand-held remote control box, that box will have buttons to alter settings for display type, colour and brightness. But how to let the mobo take control? Two possibilities. The remote box may have a button for that, too. Also on many if you push and HOLD IN the case front manual button for 5 sec or more it will turn over control to a signal coming in from the mobo header. If either of those work, you MAY have to do that each time you boot up to make the board let the mobo take over.
