The Blackmagic Design Spares - ATEM 1 M/E Panel - Control Knob refers to the physical rotary encoder cap and the underlying electronic component found in the "System Control" section of the 1 M/E Broadcast or Advanced Panel.

These knobs (often called "Soft Knobs") are used to navigate menus on the LCD screen, adjust chroma key parameters, and dial in DVE (Digital Video Effects) coordinates. Because they are the most frequently touched parts for fine-tuning, they are prone to mechanical wear and "encoder skip."


Components of the Control Knob

  • The Knob Cap: The physical plastic/rubberized piece you grip. These are friction-fit and can be replaced if the texture has worn off or if the plastic has cracked.

  • The Rotary Encoder: The electronic component soldered to the PCB. Unlike a volume knob (potentiometer), these spin infinitely and send digital "pulses" to the panel's processor.

  • The "Push" Switch: Most ATEM control knobs have a "push-to-enter" function. If you can turn the knob but cannot "click" it to select a menu item, the internal spring mechanism has failed.


When to Replace the Control Knob

  • Value "Jumping": When you turn the knob to the right, the numbers on the screen jump backward or skip large increments. This indicates that the internal optical or mechanical contacts are dirty or worn.

  • Physical Slack: The knob feels "wobbly" or loose on its axis, often caused by the internal shaft bending or the mounting nut loosening inside the chassis.

  • No Response: Turning the knob produces zero change on the LCD screen, though the other knobs in the row work fine.

  • Missing Cap: The plastic cap has fallen off or been lost during transport, leaving only the thin metal "D-shaft" exposed.


Technical Installation Note

Repair Level: 2 (Cap Only) to 4 (Encoder Soldering).

  1. Removing the Cap: If you are only replacing the plastic cap, simply pull it straight up and away from the panel. If it is stubborn, use a piece of string looped under the base to pull evenly. Do not use pliers, as you will gouge the aluminum faceplate.

  2. Accessing the Encoder: To replace the electronic component, you must open the panel and remove the Right Side or System Control PCB.

  3. Soldering Required: The encoder is a through-hole component with 3 to 5 pins (depending on the model). You will need a de-soldering pump or wick to remove the old unit without lifting the copper pads on the PCB.

  4. Shaft Alignment: When installing a new encoder, ensure the "D" flat of the shaft is oriented the same way as the others before re-seating the plastic cap to ensure the indicator line (if present) points the right way.


Diagnostic Tip: The "Skip" Fix

Before ordering a new electronic encoder, try the Cleaning Method:

  1. Remove the plastic knob cap.

  2. Spray a tiny amount of DeoxIT F5 FaderLube or high-grade contact cleaner down the shaft where it enters the housing.

  3. Spin the shaft vigorously for 60 seconds.

  4. In many cases, this clears out the microscopic dust that causes the "skipping" behavior, saving you from a soldering job.


Replacement Types

  • Menu Navigation Knob: The main knob used for scrolling through pages.

  • Parameter Knobs: The smaller row of knobs (usually 3 or 4) located directly under the LCD screen.

Are you looking for just the plastic cap to fix a cosmetic issue, or is the electronic encoder skipping and failing to change settings on the screen?

Puppy Loves this toy
Color: Tie Dye Blue
My puppy is a 7wk old Great Pyrenees & Lab mix. He loves this toy! Fun for tug of war and for cuddles. Definitely worth the money. It is durable enough for razor puppy teeth.

The pooch is on Cloud No 9
Color: Blue
Lucky loves everything about this (blue) octopus. It has squeakers in all the right places and the crinkle sound adds to his fun. He’s almost 70lbs and extremely strong, and can be an aggressive player and chewer. So far, it has held up extremely well for the tug-of-war games and crazy shaking play. It’s well worth the money. I also want to mention that this toy is true to size. I have too often ordered dog toys that turned out to be much smaller than advertised.

Large, excellent toy with many squeakers!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This toy is excellent! I’m super happy with this purchase. My dog loves squeakers and there are so many in this toy, plus stuffing for her to rip out, and crinkle paper to take the sensory experience up another notch! It’s also more durable than many other plush-type dog toys, and is larger than expected which is a plus in my book. For size reference, both dogs are around 40lbs. I will be buying another as soon as this one is demolished!
