  We analyze the conductance of a one-dimensional topological superconductor
periodically driven to host Floquet Majorana zero-modes for different
configurations of coupling to external leads. We compare the conductance of
constantly coupled leads, as in standard transport experiments, with the
stroboscopic conductance of pulsed coupling to leads used to identify a
scattering matrix topological index for periodically driven systems. We find
that the sum of DC conductance at voltages multiples of the driving frequency
is quantitatively close to the stroboscopic conductance at all voltage biases.
This is consistent with previous work which indicated that the summed
conductance at zero/pi resonance is quantized. We quantify the difference
between the two in terms of the width of their respective resonances and
analyze that difference for two different stroboscopic driving protocols of the
Kitaev chain. While the quantitative differences are protocol-dependent, we
find that generically the discrepancy is larger when the zero mode weight at
the end of the chain depends strongly on the offset time between the driving
cycle and the pulsed coupling period.
