EXTSTROBE* SignalEXTSTROBE* is an output-only signal that generates either a single pulse 
or a sequence of eight pulses in the hardware-strobe mode. An external 
device can use this signal to latch signals or to trigger events. In the 
single-pulse mode, software controls the level of EXTSTROBE*. A 10µs 
and a 1.2µs clock are  available for generating a sequence of eight pulses in 
the hardware-strobe mode.
Note EXTSTROBE* cannot be enabled through NI-DAQ.
Figure4-21 shows the timing for the hardware-strobe mode 
EXTSTROBE* signal.
