Follow these steps carefully: - Completely disconnect the Joulescope, including **IN**, **OUT,** and **USB** ports. - Use the Torx screwdriver to remove the four screws at the corners of the existing front panel. - Gently push the Joulescope’s USB connector into the Joulescope body. This action will push the front panel out. Expose about ½” or 1 cm. - Grab the sides of the main board in one hand, being careful not to touch any other part of the board. - Grab the existing front panel by the sides and carefully pull it directly out. - Grab the new front panel by the sides, align the pins, and carefully push it in. - Fully seat the front panel in the black plastic bezel. You may need to gently guide the board to ensure that the USB connector fits in the back panel. - Use the Torx screwdriver to install the four screws at the corners of the existing front panel.
