    Your FC level is ok...if you want to lower it either just turn the output down a bit or shorthen you pump run time a bit. Is the pool getting any use? That can make a difference. If I don't use my pool for a week my FC tests higher than when I do.
    Get your salt level checked at a pool store to verify what the reading is. The autopilot has a way to calibrate the readout from a good reading if it is off. You need to call tech support at autopilot systems for the procedure if it needs to be recalibrated. (this is not that uncommen, btw)
    Your CC is 0 so there is nothing in the water the chlorine is fighting.

    You didn't say how big your pool is. I have a 6600 gal pool and my Aqualogic is running at 5% with an 8 hour pump run time and my FC is at 3 ppm.
