    Float with for high sump water level

    I have added a float switch to my sump and created a new Virtual outlet "High_Sump_ALM" I am trying to create an alert that if my return pump stops and the water rises and the float is tripped I get an alert. My issue is the pump outlet needs to be 'ON" and the float switch has to be on also. When I turn my return off to feed I don't want my alerts to turn on.

    Virtual outlet

    Fallback OFF
    Set OFF
    If Output Return_Pump = ON Then OFF
    If S_High CLOSED Then ON

    Move the If Output line so it is after the If switch line.

    Also, add a brief Defer so that the VO does not turn on as soon as the pump comes back on:

    Defer 0:30 Then ON

    Thanks RussM.

    Is this correct?

    Fallback OFF
    Set OFF
    If Time 12:00 to 12:25 Then OFF
    If S_High CLOSED Then ON
    If Output Return_Pump = ON Then OFF
    Defer 000:30 Then ON

    No. The order is wrong. The If Time line must be after the If switch line, just like the If Output line, so it overrides the If switch line when true
