You need to answer the same basic questions as the original poster. How are you planning to connect? If you have a controller with a serial interface, that would be the easiest.

You use a DAQmx Write to send a signal. You don't mention what progamming language you are using but there are examples installed along with the driver. You'll have to study the manual to determine the type of signal - dc levels or some sort of waveform.

If you had chosen the the serial communication option for the controller, you would have had the advantage of using the existing example (assumimg you are using LabVIEW).

Examples have been in the same place for a very long time - Help>Find Examples. Dig down through Hardware Input and Output>DAQmx> Analog Generation.
