pulse generation using digital output

My application needs to generate a pulse with variable width with initial delay after receiving an analog pulse. The main problem is I am using M series DAQ NI6254, so I don't have enough counters to do this job. I need to produce 8 separately controlled pulses, which need 8 counters
 
Another problem is i need a time resolution of 0.01ms for my pulse generation. I found that the software loop can only give me 1 ms. I need  less than that.
 
Can anyone tell me what to do?

Hello,
 
Unfortunately with the NI-6254 it is not possible to produce this type of functionallity.  It would be best to get a counter/timer DAQ card such as the NI-6602 which has 8 counters.
