If you have a DAC chip on a DIO, you may use it - by streaming the data- to generate waveform you need - e.g 0.2 ms delay with 0v out, 0.1ms +5v. You may use hardware sync to start the DAC, or use 2 DAC to trigger 2 independent events. I'm not sure if you can stream data into digital IO port - but it may be the other solution not so elegant and straightforward - but it worked for me (with DAC triggering)
