Frank,
You could use the DIO lines on the 6034E. But keep in mind the limitations of the DIO lines on this card. These DIO lines are programmed IO only. That means, that data transfers (in or out) can only be done via software timing. You cannot do any hardware timing on the DIO lines for this card. If you need hardware timing on this operation, you will need to use a DIO card.
But, if you can work with only software timing, you have the advatage in this card of being able to configure line direction on a line by line basis, which I think can be very beneficial in serial communication.
