Modified pin for LED

Hi. I have a LED strip stick on my frame. So what I wanna do is to define it in printer.cfg as [led] But then how can I turn it on by define another macro ? My board is Octopus V1.1 446

this depends if the strip only has +5V and GND you cant cnotrol it out of the box you would need a 3 pin strip in your case you would need a relais or something
