niSwitch vs DAQmx

I am interested in a general discussion of the differences between DAQmx and niSwitch. DAQmx seems to be a superset (newer implementation?) of niSwitch.
When controlling a simple device such as a relay driver (PXI-2567), is there a reason to choose one of these over the other? Both have the ability to open and close switches.
Can I mix and match them in the same vi? I seem to remember hearing that I should stick to one switch control pallet in a given vi.
Are there programming situations where there is a compelling reason to choose one over the other?
 
Thanks in advance for the advice,
Bob

Hi Bob,
 
Hopefully this Knowledge Base will answer your questions about the differences between NI-Switch and DAQmx for switch programming.
