ATO Apex Programming

I was wondering if this statement is correct for my ATO. I have a feeling I'm missing something.

Set OFF
Fallback OFF
If Sw1 OPEN Then ON
Defer 000:07 Then ON will this turn the pump on for a minimum of 7 seconds?
Min Time 001:00 Then OFF will this turn the pump on after the switch has been down longer than a minute?
If Sw2 OPEN Then OFF fail safe switch
If Sw3 CLOSED Then OFF this is a floor sensor

Defer means delay; essentially it says If Sw1 goes OPEN, wait 7 seconds before physically turning the outlet ON.

Min Time says once the outlet goes OFF, wait 1 minute before allowing it to turn back ON. This assume Sw1 is still OPEN.

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Sw1 CLOSED Then ON
If Sw2 OPEN Then OFF
If Sw3 CLOSED Then OFF
Defer 001:00 Then ON <- Delay the ATO for 1 minute to prevent it turn on and off from splashes or waves
Min Time 001:00 Then ON [adjust the time to how long it normally takes to refill your sump - this is your failsafe].

Thanks! I thought I was missing something.
