Any thought on how I could restart an outlet on XP8 if lower than normal power draw is detected?

It seems like this happens sometimes with my return pump (SICCE Syncra ADV 7.0) when power flickers (I'm assuming based on other notifications for devices going offline), but it's not long enough for UPS to actually switch to battery power. I can unplug the UPS from the wall and nothing interrupts, but I guess tiny flickers it doesn't detect.

So anyways, after that pump gets stuck drawing 1w and not actually operating. Not sure if this is a bug or a feature of the pump, but seems like Hydros side is ok, since I can unplug it and plug back into same outlet and it restarts without doing anything on Hydros.

XP8 has power monitoring, but I do not see a way to act on it. If this is not true please let me know. For now only idea I have it to set some sort of schedule for the outlet to turn it on and off every few hours, so if it does gets stuck in this weird on but not on position it will only last few hours vs overnight. It happened two or three times now, that I wake up in the morning and pump is off.
