    That does fit for a couple that I'm looking for. Unfortunately, they only seem to have 11 detent encoders. I emailed them the other day asking if they have other ones but have yet to receive a response.

      Why does the 11 matter?


      Also, encoders are switches inside, they do not have a resistance value.

        I think this is the central problem. The OP has been asking for an encoder when what he actually wants is a potentiometer with detents.
        Experience is something you get, just after you really needed it.

          I did think of that, the silk screen on his board calls out a VR number, VR meaning Variable Resistor, or pot. In most cases encoders are called out as eight switches, as in S101, or as ENC for encoder.

            ..and in this post (#11, above) the OP mentions a resistance marked on the bottom of the component.
