Can I change the DIO Power-On state on a NI USB-6008?

Is there a way to set the DIO Power-On state on a USB-6008 to output-low? I need to do this because I command RF switches and now when the DAQ starts all the positions on my switches are activated and therefore the switches overheat quite quickly.

Nope.

 

You can either put an inverter on the outputs, between the switches ... or a buffer with an enable line that you drive from an analog output.  The 1-volt AO's output on powerup isn't usually enough to toggle digital logic.
