## **Step 1** - Preparing acrylic plates
![Kit Assembly](/helios4/img/kit/assembly_pic3.jpg)
2017-11-27 13:31:35 +01:00
> **Each acrylics plate is recovered with a protective layer on both sides. Peel the protective layers slowly and insure no left-over sticks to the plate.**

2017-11-27 13:31:35 +01:00
2017-12-28 11:23:46 +01:00
> **Because of the die-cut intricacy of the front panel, the laser cut process might have left the scrap pieces in place. You will have to use a a tool (e.g a pen or a flat screwdriver) to push out the scrap pieces. You might have to do the same for some of the screw holes on the other plates.**

This task requires the most patience. Don't rush it or you risk to damage it.

## Optional Assembly Step
### OLED Display - Part A
> **Prepare the following items.**
* OLED display
* 4-wire dupont cable (**Length : 30cm**)
* 4x clear plastic screws + nuts
* Front Panel
![Kit Assembly](/helios4/img/kit/assembly_pic47.jpg)
2019-07-16 08:32:15 +02:00
> **Connect the 4-wire cable to the J9 header**
!!! note
2019-08-14 06:16:34 +02:00
The color of your jumper cable is most likely different than the one you see in these pictures. The purpose of the different colors is just to help you check your wiring is correct. **Plug in any order.**
2019-07-16 08:32:15 +02:00

2019-07-16 08:32:15 +02:00
**Now you can jump back to Casing Assembly [section](#step-6-casing-assembly-12).**
### OLED Display - Part B
> **Connect the 4-wire cable to the OLED screen.**
!!! important
The PIN order is different between the J9 header and the OLED header. You will need to connect each cable to match the same PIN name between the OLED header and the J9 header (GND to GND, VCC to VCC, SDA to SDA, etc...). See below the J9 and Display header pinouts.
