I was mistaken. Here is the answer from Hamamatsu:

> If I am not mistaken, the Programmable output lines you refer to are the Programmable output trigger ports.  And yes, they are supported.  To setup an output trigger port to programmable, simply set any of the OUTPUT TRIGGER KIND properties to "PROGRAMMABLE".  At that point, OUTPUT TRIGGER DELAY, POLARITY, PERIOD, and SOURCE will control how the output trigger will look.

Best,
