Defining a wire sequence is only necessary for wire networks. For example in your drawing there are two wires that form a network between CTB2, AI10, and RA10. The define wire sequence tool helps define the "daisy chain" to your desired connection order. The connection from CTB2 to A10A only consists of one wire so no sequence definition is necessary. I ran show wire sequence and you have the sequence set to go from CTB2 to AI10 and back to RA10. Is that not what you wanted?
Now bear in mind that those pesky node dots can screw you up sometimes as well. Why? Because they effectively look like a short until enough components are in the drawings to create separation. I don't use dots. If those rails are really buses made up of terminals, I replace the dots with terminal block symbols. I then create a layer called JumperBar and that is the connection between the terminals in the rail. Why? Well, ask yourself this: Is the vertical rail really a wire or a bus? If a bus, then I put it on a layer called JumperBar. The layer JumperBar will pass logic (current, wire number, etc.) but the program knows to ignore it from a wire list.
