Turning off 5V Power supply on USB-6009

Is there a way to turn off the 5V power supply/output on USB-6009?

 

It would simplify our design if we could control the power output using the USB-6009 instead of creating additional hardware to control the 5V power output with an output from the USB-6009.

 

I guess I could use DAQmxResetDevice() to reset the USB-6009 in order to turn off the 5V power but I wouldn't have control over how long the power was off.

Can you use an analog output as the 5V source instead?  I do not think there is a way to turn off the +5 V power pin on the device.
