NI 9477 - Want to turn off outputs in case of communication/USB Fault

I have set up a CDaq with some modules, one of which is a NI 9477. I am using it turn on and off various parts of the system. 

 

The system runs a HV PSU, and while it is not common, there is a chance that the system may arc. When this happens, it tends to act like an ESD bomb, and that has killed the NI communications on a couple of occasions for us. 

 

One of the items that is controlled by the NI 9477 is the PSU, and I want it to turn off the moment such a communication issue occurs.

 

Is this a possibility at all?

 

What I am hoping is that in case of any fault or communication, all outputs (or particular outputs) on the NI9477 drop to FALSE.
