Hmm, I think I might be beginning to get it:

Code:
awk '
# Store all time entries
NR==FNR && /time/ { A[++N]=$2" "$3 ; next }
/time/ { M++ } # Count entry number in second pass
# Truncate line to close sensor trillium_240_2, and add new date to end
((M%2) == 0) && /close/ { NF=3; $0=$0" "A[M+1] } 1' inputfile inputfile
