      Hi - I'm using RollerCan motors for a robot teleop setup and have two questions related to the encoder functionality:

      1. In the documentation its mentioned (somewhere) that the RollerCan relies on open source projects including https://github.com/scottbez1/smartknob - which I assume is how the clicky detent behavior is implemented when the motor is in encoder mode. Are there any methods to set or modify the detent behaviors?

      2. For the "rollercan_0.get_motor_position_readback()" method, just wanted to confirm the value returned is degrees - it seems to be, but I don't see that documented anywhere.

      Thanks!
