ai/SampleClockTimebase is not available as an output on the I/O connector. 
ai/SampleClockTimebase is divided down to provide one of the possible 
sources for ai/SampleClock. You can configure the polarity selection for 
ai/SampleClockTimebase as either rising or falling edge.
AI Convert Clock Signal
Caution   Setting the conversion rate higher than the maximum rate specified for your 
device will result in errors.
Use the AI Convert Clock (ai/ConvertClock) signal to initiate a single A/D 
conversion on a single channel. A sample, controlled by the AI Sample 
Clock, consists of one or more conversions.
You can specify either an internal or external signal as the source of 
ai/ConvertClock. You also can specify whether the measurement sample 
begins on the rising edge or falling edge of ai/ConvertClock.
With NI-DAQmx, the driver will choose the fastest conversion rate possible 
based on the speed of the A/D converter and add 10 µs of padding between 
each channel to allow for adequate settling time. This scheme enables the 
channels to approximate simultaneous sampling and still allow for 
adequate settling time. If the AI Sample Clock rate is too fast to allow for 
this 10 µs of padding, NI-DAQmx will choose the conversion rate so that 
the AI Convert Clock pulses are evenly spaced throughout the sample.
To explicitly specify the conversion rate, use the AI Convert Clock Rate

Using an Internal Source
One of the following internal signals can drive ai/ConvertClock:
AI Convert Clock Timebase (divided down)
Counter n Internal Output
A programmable internal counter divides down the AI Convert Clock 
Timebase to generate ai/ConvertClock. The counter is started by 
ai/SampleClock and continues to count down to zero, produces an 
ai/ConvertClock, reloads itself, and repeats the process until the sample is
