Is my pool/ AutoPilot setting OK?

Ok I am trying to understand this. It is better to run the AutoPilot power at 1 with a higher output level than level 2 with a lower output level? Is it the power level or the output level that affects the cell life the most? As I said, my purifier is off most of the time and at about 20% output when it is on and I am keeping a FC of 4-5. When I lower the power to level 1 with a higher output the cell will run even less because of the higher output?

Also, I am not turning the purifier on and off. It does that by itself. Is it programmed to do that or is it strictly based on temperature? My temps are pretty steady at 83-85. I just want to understand how this works better.

Thanks.
