Answer to the Daily Themed crossword clue Rotary component, in old phones featured in the Daily Themed puzzle is DIAL.
The rotary component in old phones is called the "dial." In rotary dial telephones, users would rotate a dial (also known as a rotary dialer or dial wheel) to input the telephone number they wished to dial. Each number was associated with a corresponding pulse or series of pulses that were transmitted down the telephone line to connect the call.
The dial typically had numbered finger holes arranged in a circular pattern around the dial face. Users would insert their finger into the corresponding hole for each digit of the telephone number and rotate the dial clockwise until reaching the finger stop, then release it to let it return to its resting position. This action would generate electrical pulses corresponding to the dialed number.
