EVGA Z690 CLASSIFIED (121-AL-E698)
15. RGB LED Controller Header
The RGB header is a 12V. 4 pin header with a current limit of 2A; anything
above 2A will trigger overcurrent protection and lock at 2A. This header allows
for software-based control via EVGA ELEET X1 within Windows for RGB
devices. Please see Page 43 for header specifics, and Page Error! Bookmark
not defined. for control options in ELEET X1.
16. Reset Button
This is an onboard system reset button, and may be used in place of, or in
conjunction with, a front panel system reset button wired to the board.
Benching systems, or test benches before final assembly, are best served by
using the onboard power because it removes the need to wire a Power/Reset
button or cross posts with a screwdriver, which is a semi-common practice.
This button provides a safer and easier option than jumpering the Power posts.

18. USB to SPI for BIOS Flash
This USB port is designed to connect directly to the motherboard to allow the
motherboard BIOS to be flashed, even if no CPU is installed. For more
information on how to flash your BIOS using this method, please see Page 144.
19. Multi-function POST Indicator
This is a four-digit POST code reader, which displays in sets of 7-digit LED.
The display can be configured to show data in regular decimal format, or
hexadecimal, which means the characters available (when working as intended)
are 0-9, A-F and has a cap of 255 characters.
During POST, the left set of LEDs will display the various POST codes as they
cycle through the Power On Self-Test. The POST codes are listed in the
troubleshooting section on Page 154.
After the system boots, these same set of LEDs can be set to display a hardware
monitoring sensor, such as the CPU temperature in Celsius.
