pressure actuated level sensor ATO

Picture below so that it's clearer to understand. I'm currently using a Tsunami ATO, which uses a pressure sensor to turn on/off ATO. The Tsunami has a module which the pressure sensor 1/4 hose and water pump plug into. This module then plugs into the Relay Box. I also use high single float switch to turn off Relay Box plugin in case of malfunction.

The issue: The Relay Box plug is currently always on so that the Tsunami module does the on/off work for ATO and then single float for malfunction turn off Relay Box plug.

Since the Relay Box plug is always on, is there a way for the RA to know when the Tsunami turns on? This way I could put a timer say 30 seconds for pressure switch ATO and have two malfunction safeties. One in case Tsunami does not turn off and second the high float switch.

Nope, unless you use another sensor to monitor if the water level is changing.
