Description

It's not clear how to wire my ky-040 encoder with this configuration. I'm using VIAL and I need to put the switch (button) in the matrix. At the same time I want to use the rotary encoder, is it possibile? I noticed online the wiring is without the pcb with resistors that my encoder has....

Thank you

Research direction
Investigate the KY 040 encoder wiring configuration for QMK firmware, focusing on how to integrate the switch into the matrix while using the encoder. Check QMK documentation for encoder support and VIAL compatibility.
