I must first apologize if this question has been asked (nunerous) times before.  I am working on a project that requires the ditch lighs to alternate.  Am I correct in wiring the LEDs one to the F5 pad and the other one to the F6 pad?   Again sorry for this repetitive question......many thanks.

 Yes, to have alternating ditch lights, each light needs to be wired to a different function output.It the function settings there is usually an option for a "phase a" and "phase b" so you would set one to be A and the other to be B, that way they alternate, when one's on, the other is off.
