So far, I am very happy with my CFA-635, but one thing that I am having a hard time figuring out is what I can do with the buttons. My original plan for a LCD screen was one without buttons, but when I heard about the programmable buttons, visions in my head appeared of me being able to control aspects of my server or possibly even shut it down with the LCD buttons.
Ive been scouring this site for the past couple days, and so far, the only things the buttons seem to be able to do is scroll between my screens, and control Winamp. Since Im using this on a server, Winamp or other media controls are of no use to me.
It doesnt appear to have any other way of programming actual computer functions to be controlled by the keys.
If controlling Winamp and scrolling through screens is all it can do, that kind of a disappointment to me. I could have saved some money and went with a different LCD without the buttons.
So, someone, please give me some guidance on what other useful functions can be had with those buttons.
