    I had another thread about the Wabbit, however I thought if I added on another question it might go missing so voila this thread. I'm just confirming my understanding which is shaky at best. With the Wabbit, you do not need separate detection units to inform the wabbit (informing the tortoise to throw); instead there is some kind of detection included in the Wabbit with a timer that once the engine crosses that part of the track preferably two seconds or more from the turnout, the turnout will be thrown, is my understanding correct?

    Rick,
    Download the instructions and look at page 15 for Auto Return Enable and Auto Return Delay. These settings will return a turnout to a predetermine direction after an action. Auto Detection is a set of wires and a gap in one of the rails, see page 5 for that.
