PXI proto kit... Do they exist?

[TimothysAlias]

I want a PXI interface card hardware proto-typing development kit. I don't know if NI makes them or a second source does, but I would imagine that someone does. I need an interface to the PXI backplane so I can digitally communicate to my custom electronics. My first project is to make a custom switch matrix using high voltage reed relays so all I need is digital ports on a PXI proto board. Other projects may require interupts but thats as complicated as it gets. No DMA interface or anything like that. Wire-wrap 0.1" holly perf board would probably work with the PXI backplane interface on one end of it. Anybody out there know of such a beast?

There are a few companies who make PXI breadboards.
I have seen some good success with PXIT boards

Just a general reminder, interfacing to most PXI breadboard kits is not always a straitforward process. Usually it is done by a write function like PXIWrite(Address#,port,Data) or a read with similar structure. Most devices can't be tested in MAX, you need to write your own test panels, or hope for some supplied from the maker.
