ABSTRACT:
A system and method for switching input modes is disclosed that includes receiving an input signal from an input device and determining whether the input signal is a data signal or a command signal. A present value of a counter is also determined if the input signal is a data signal. If the present value of the counter is not greater than zero, an output signal having a first value type is produced. If the present value of the counter is greater than zero, then the present value of the counter is decremented and an output signal having a second value type is produced. Additional aspects of the present invention relate to input devices utilized in switching between the input modes.
