How to change percussion for an orchestra work?

Hello there.
I’m new to Dorico, and for now I am composing an orchestra, which I got trouble on percussion section. From the picture attached, how can I change to a xylophone? The percussion staff is merged with drum kit, I think.
However, I want the main staves remain as Percussion 1, 2, 3, and in the piece each staff may change the to another like xylophone, vibraphone, chimes, etc.

Thank you in advance.

Add the xylophone to the Perc 1 player in setup mode.
Switch to Galley View in Write mode where you will see all instruments.
Add the xylophone part. Then when you switch back to Page View, the
instrument change will happen automatically.
