Yep. 13 or 14 positions...

This really depends on what springs you have but being a few clicks from
full soft is probably okay.

The adjuster uses some sort of patented setup whereby if you try turning
in more clicks than are available, there is nor change in the damping.
Conversely, once you start turning it back towards soft, the mechanism
acts immdiaqtely 'till you get to full soft. Further clicking that
direction producs no change.
This should be described in the directions with the shocks.
You did get instructions, didn't you?
