Abstract
A control system processes commands received from a user. The control system may control one or more devices within a vehicle. A switch allows the control system to choose one of multiple input channels. The method that receives the data selects a channel through a process that minimizes data losses. The switching occurs upon a user request, when the control system does not recognize an input, or when an interference masks a user request.
