Nic,
you can easely control 2(3) of the 9 Pins of the RS232 Port with the VISA Propeties (Visa Open, VISA Propety (Modem line settings: DTR and RTS state (and Break (TDx)) , VISA Close)
However, since the serial driver it is not made for this type of timed digital IO, I'm not shure about the resolution you might get. If you have a scope, then do some loop testing and move some windows or do some other system load
🙂Have a nice weekend
