    I believe you need Okuma's DNC-B option.

    Yes, you need to purchase the DNC-B option, which is a separate board / port to connect to. You will also need the software to have the Okuma B protocol.

    Cost for the board is about $4K and up, software is about $1,500.

    Call you local Okuma dealer for availability....leadtime has been up to 6 months!
