How Do I Access the DPull Pin on My UMI-7774?

Hardware: Motion Control>>Power Drives, Motion Control>>Controllers

Problem:
I have a NI 733x, 734x, or 735x Motion Controller connected the the UMI-7774, and I need to change the default power-up state.  I know that I need to either connect the DPull pin to ground or to 5V, depending on the state that I want to set, but I do not see any way to access that pin from the UMI-7774.  How can I do this?

Solution:
Currently, the UMI-7774 is set up for easy D-Sub connector access to most of the lines from the motion controller.  However, the UMI-7774 does not provide access to every line.  The DPull pin (pin 38) is not exposed on the UMI-7774.

In order to change the power-up state of the digital (DIO) lines when connecting a NI Motion Controller to a UMI-7774, a custom cable must be used.
