PCI 6515 to drive 15VDC IGBTs of an inverter

Hello,

I'm using PCI 6515 digital outputs to drive a 15 VDC IGBTs of an inverter. I wasn't aware of the idea of sinking and sourcing Digital I/O, and PCI 6515 seems to have sinking digital outputs. According to this page: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3291/en/ , I can't power the device (IGBTs) with a sinking output. However, taking a look at the user manual of the PCI 6515: http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372172b.pdf, I found this example circuit: https://ibb.co/eDe0yT in which it seems that the device (load) is powered with the sinking output!! I'm confused whether I can use the PCI card for my goal or not.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks.
