Salt Water Generator not making Chlorine

[Bmgoldman]

Hey, we've had this pool for about 6 weeks, and switched on 7/11/23 to a salt water pool (as per the plan). Over the last week, we've realized that we aren't making chlorine. So, I talked to the pool company, and set the chlorination to 100% yesterday, and even with that, we seem to not be making chlorine in the pool. The chlorine tests keep coming back blank (no color/null). The skimmers don't seem clogged, as we've cleaned them quite well over last 2 days.

Everything else seems to be ok, pH is 7.6, Alkalinity is 90, CYA is 50, Salt is 3100, Calcium is 360, water temp is 91 degrees F, pool is 24,000 gallons.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Welcome to TFP! A couple questions first
1 - Which SWG do you have?
2 - How are you testing your water?

These questions are very important as they can relate to FC production from a SWG.
