Thomas,

  If you have access to the TESS controllers library then you will find 
a controller with lockouts such that if it decides to turn on a pump or 
fan (or other) then that device has to run for a certain amount of time 
before it can turn off. There are lockouts on shut down as well.

kind regards,

  David
