Pin 'J56' is not valid pin name on 'mcu'

Hi, I am trying to get proper lighting control for the Dayspring LEDs on RatOS 2.1 RC2. However, Klipper reports the pin name I am using is not valid, but according the the pin diagram it does exist. I've included my printer.cf and led.cfg in the .zip folder. Any ideas?
Solution:
Maybe J56 and J57 aren't controllable?

What board are you using? What port is connected to the LEDs? RatOS.cfg could have answered that first question

J56 specifies a header, not a pin. Look up your board pinout diagram and look for the pin you've connected it to. Not the header. The specific pin.

how do I differentiate a header from a pin?? I'm reading from BTT's pin diagram https://github.com/bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-OCTOPUS-V1.0/blob/master/Hardware/BIGTREETECH%20Octopus%20-%20PIN.pdf

Ugh. I linked the Octopus PRO. Struggling to find another page that actually gives the pin names and not the Connector name (things starting with J are describing the whole connector, not the individual pins)

yeah that BTT link I sent is all I could find I was reading the PIN diagram against the RatOS.cfg to reverse-engineer (decrypt?) how this is setup and I noticed something

so either J56 is missing a pin or it is just straight ground, no config available

like, one can only select the voltage with the jumper then they're always on? Seems weird but it ... yeah that
