So the way I have my ato set up is that it's only one float switch because the room in the back of my tank is so small however I want to limit the pump's time being turnt on. For example let's say something blocks the float switch from turning off or on and the pump stays on like it did a week ago and empties the whole 5 gallon bucket of rodi water in my tank I want there to be a way where if the pump cannot be on longer than 5 seconds. Any help?

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
OSC 000:00/000:05/059:55 Then ON
If Switch CLOSED Then OFF
If Switch OPEN Then ON

This will turn on pump for 5 sec ever 1 hr if needed.

The when command in this only allows it to stay on the time designated.
