No, the USB-3102/3104/3106 Series of analog output DAQ devices cannot source current. These devices do not provide the power for a user's circuit/load. An external power supply must be wired to a sinking input channel as part of the user's circuit.
A typical application uses a 24 V loop supply. The loop can use either a grounded load where the external supply floats, or a grounded supply where the load floats. See attached below.
