how to delay a trigger

I perform retriggerable data acquisition based on technique described here and as my starting point couple year ago I used attached example shipped with LabVIEW.

What I would like to achieve now is to generate another trigger with some delay in parallel with data aquisition when the original trigger arrives.

 

To make a simple schema:
Trigger is recognized->DAQ  [that works perfect already more than one year]
                                  ->wait 100ms->output the trigger  [has to be added]

 

Using WXP, NI PCI 6110


Thank in advance to anybody interested

Hello, I was maybe thinking that the way to go would be to produce a pulse on one of the digital outputs when the trigger is recognized. But how to delay the pulse on the hardware level? I could do that by software by since the triggers come with high rate it won't be reliable. Is there a way to program the DAQ card to do that?

Thanks!!!
