So I have switched out my BOB/Float switch combo for a FMM/Optical switch combo. In the days of the BOB/Float one of the best practices was to set the "action" on a BOB/Float to when the float was showing "CLOSED" instead of "OPEN". The thinking on this is that if a BOB failed or accidentally disconnected it would default to the "OPEN" status. If you have a ATO set to run on "OPEN" you would end up with a RODI flood if the BOB ever became disconnected.
With the FMM/Optical Switch combo CLOSED=COVERED WITH WATER. Because of this my ATO has to be programmed with "If SUMPLO OPEN Then ON". If for some reason the FMM or Optical switch would be disconnected it would default to OPEN and start the ATO. As a safety I used "When On > 005:00 Then OFF" so it would turn off after 5 min but it still bothers me.
Is there any way to change the status via future update in module or other ways to protect against a flood outside of what I am doing?
