8 PWM signals with 9401

Hello,

 

I am looking into producing 8 PWM signals using an NI-9401 in a cDAQ-9174. Ideally each PWM signal would be able to have a different duty cycle, but run at the same frequency (25kHz). From what I've read in the link below, I cannot accomplish this using counters.

I am thinking there is a way to do this by coding the digital outputs to run off the 20MHz hardware time base, but I'm not sure if this is feasible. I would appreciate it if someone could give me a quick answer as to whether my suggestion is possible or if I'm wasting my time.  

 

Thank you.
