Send a digital output trigger on VSync

This demo will configure a digital output schedule to read the RAM buffer and output the square wave to digital output 0 on VSync. This demo opens the device, stops any current running schedule, sets the ram/buffer for our update synchronization on video signal, and starts right away.

The arguments of DPxSetDoutSched(onset, rateValue, rateUnits, count) are as follows:
Onset: 0, starts now.
Rate: 2, on/off happens once per frame.
Units: 'video', per video frame.
Duration: 0, lasts until the schedule is stopped.
