George, note that as detailed in this earlier post:

https://ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/...51#79142442810812251

the FRM01 was set to the perpetual cycling mode (Function 06):

As long as one or more sidings is active, the FRM01 will be clicking on-off-on-off-etc. about once per second. It was this perpetual mechanical clicking that I thought was annoying and hence suggested the one timer relay module per siding...so you'd only get a single click when a new siding was powered.

So if your setup is wired exactly as shown above (with the diodes installed), you should be able to set the FRM01 to Function 06 with T1=1.0 sec on, T2=0.1 sec off and your 2 siding test set up should work. But to be clear, whenever one or both sidings are on, the FRM01 will be clicking. If neither siding is powered, the FRM01 is dark and silent.
