DAQmx Fan Out Counter Output to both a TTL trigger line and a PFI port

I have a PXIe-6612 and I want to route a counter output to both a PFI port and a PXI TTL trigger line. I've tried a few configurations and they all throw errors - is there a way to have this one signal fan out to two ports? Ideally I would not like to use up another PXI TTL line. I know I can route with physical wires between PFI ports, but that has been giving me some timing issues.

 

I've tried:

Routing from the PFI to the TTL line (the default CO.Pulse.Term is PFI36)

Routing directly from the counter output name listed in MAX: (I had to type in Ctr0InternalOutput since it wasn't listed in the constant dropdown)

Routing from the internal counter output to the PXI TTL line without modifying the counter channel

The counter outputs to the PXI TTL and then the PXI TTL routes to the PFI

Putting multiple terminals in one constant also fails - it says "Number of terminals requested cannot be greater than 1."

The errors look like this:
