Since the rules don't expressly say otherwise, they could all be on at once. But that's going to be a lot of overlapping imagery trying to show you different things. And there is a precedent in the book for penalties when you have too much sensory data (using AR or Astral Perception). So the GM could give you a -2 for how distracted the view makes you.

An easier solution would be to use the Change Device Mode rules. If you're using DNI and the device has wireless enabled, then it's a Free Action to change modes. If you're not using DNI, or the device has wireless disabled, then it's a Simple Action to change. Which means you could mentally toggle through your vision mods, or you may need to press a button.
The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work…when you go to church…when you pay your taxes.
