If it's always going to be the same automated tasks in the same order with the same timing, and if you're never going to want to control any of the same actuators manually at the same time, there's another way to do it that might be simpler. Add a parallel task (you can put it in the Periodic Tasks vi) that consists of a never-terminating while loop. Inside that loop, use a flat sequence with each step of the process in its own frame alongside an appropriate delay. In the very first frame, put a while loop that terminates only when a global variable is set true. Set that variable false again in the very last frame. In your main code, whenever the automatic sequence is needed, set that global variable true and the parallel task will do its thing.
