What I want to do is to use a rain sensor to stop the garden watering.

So I created an instruction that is " If rain sensor ON" then "garden watering OFF".

The problem is that that OFF instruction can be overrided by any other instruction for example a timer, so, if it starts raining 5 mins before the timer turns the watering on, the timer will turn everything on. My system only works if it starts raining while the watering is on.

Is there any way of for example "turn OFF for 8 hours" ?
Is there a way of saying "turn off while the sensor indicates water"?

The only way I can think of doing something similar is by saying Off -> delay 1 Mins ->Off -> delay 1 Mins ->Off -> delay 1 Mins ->Off -> delay 1 Mins ->Off -> delay 1 Mins ->Off -> delay 1 Mins ->

For... 8 hours.....

(and I have 12 valves...)
