one question is how do you make multiple absolute times, and is it possible to use this without the date be taken into account so that it can run forever.

The example Jarrod posted is using multiple times.  The Timestamps input is an array of as many times as you want.

and when i test it with an array, the array has a different line. The input is a sink and the array doesn't match. It comes up with an error

When looking at the properties for the timed sequence structure, make sure you have the Built-In Timing Source Type set to 1 kHz <absolute time> instead of the default 1 kHz Clock.

 

To make the timestamp ignore the date, you have to rebuild it with the current date.  The attached example is horribly ugly and possibly complicated but all I was able to come up with for the moment.  If anyone has any improvement suggestions, please post them.
