Will this work with a rotary phone for dialing, or is it touch tone only?

Amazon (through whatever channel they used) sent me a Euorpean power cable - I tried countless times to get the correct AMERICAN power cord - to no avail. I simply gave up on them. Sorry, can't help you other than to ensure that your address (mine is 'Oakland, MD 21550') can't be confused for a foreign address so that you don't waste money like I did

This devise will be a bridge allowing the voice system in your network. Yes a rotary phone should work as well.

No. Per the manual, the SPA2102 does not support pulse dial (which is what rotary phones use) and only supports DTMF (tone) dial. If you're handy with electronics, you can get it to work with a microcontroller, though. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLoQ5UA1tvc

Yes that is correct. Once you pair your cell to the base, you can use any handset to place a call on your cell by selecting Cell1 instead of Home on the keypad. You do not have a traditional dial tone but rather it is quiet while it dials using your cell. Hope this helps.

No , you have to use a button to get a dial tone and then dial the phone number using the key pad

No dial tone upon plug in. However, I do have a cell phone that's with me at work so that should work at a minimum. Was just hoping for both land line and cell options. Agreed re: buy and try. Again, thanks for your help.

Not only does this headset support voice dialing (assuming that your phone does also) but it will last-number redial too. The instructions in the manual are vague, but if you hold the control on the earpiece for just 2 seconds, it will connect. The headset control requires a firm press to activate its features and if you hold it too long, it may simply turn off. I'd prefer a confirmation beep or two so I know for sure what it's doing.

the buttons are rubber-coated over plastic, to be exact. If your concern is finger slippage while dialing, fear not - the friction supplied by the rubberized button is secure. BUT, bear in mind this is a bare-bones, land-line phone. Nothing about it screams quality.

824's work with other VoIP type dial tones.as long as you have a RJ 11(phone jack)out to connect in to the co jack on the 824. magic jack and vonage work fine on 824's

Many 'moder' phones have a switch selecting between 'pulse dial' and 'tone dial'. "Pulse Dial" is the old rotary dial and some newer phone switching systems no longer support Pulse Dial, so if you have managed to toggle this switch (maybe brushing up against the side of the phone or something), this would cause dialing not to work. Check for this switch and move it to the tone dial position.

Yes. Numbers 2 through 9, and the * and # keys can all be programmed for one touch dialing! My mom still likes her phone. She's legally blind and can call anyone of us (her kids) and some friends easily.

yes, if you hit the redial button it will speed dial . make sure you have the correct name .

You probably could use it as a VOIP headset with the right adapters. It's really intended for use with a dedicated dial pad. I would look for a cheaper solution for VOIP.

This device will dial your mobile number each time there is sound above a certain threshold. Therefore it might dial your number even when there is just a normal conversation between two people or when it pick up sound from a television

There should have been 2 cords with phone. One of the cords will give dial tone on 1st line. Other cord will give dial tone on both phone lines. And not to be silly...you do need a working phone connection.

Yes, as long as you have that capability via your phone company. In my case, I have to hit the tone button after I dial the phone number to have that capability.

I think it will as it is connected before the phone you are using and just replaces the dialing function...like the olden day operators did...

Both, I believe. I think you can get a dialtone and make calls by just having the phone plugged into the phone jack. There are batteries for other functions e.g, caller Id and the like.
