## Customisation
DK60TP allows some customisations like RGB underglow and caps lock led.
### Capslock led
Capslock led can be tuned to :
* enable internal led
* disabled it
* use external led
To do this you need to play with the 3 pins connector placed near the reset button.
#### Pinout
* 1 : +Vled
* 2 : Integrated led
* 3 : GND
#### Example
##### Integrated led
Place a jumper between pin 1 and 2.
##### External led
Connect your led and resistor between pin 1 and 3.
##### Disable led
Remove the jumper or place it between pin 2 and 3.
### RGB underglow
To add more leds (use WS2812B with capacitor) simply use `RGB` connector on the mainboard.
:warning: Do not connect `RGB` connector if you use the second PCB (those with mouse buttons).
