I redid the rest and the salt is minus 400 today using the kit. We did clean the filters and salt cell, system box saying salt is 2900.Run a complete set of tests.
Unless I missed it, your last CH test is from 10 months ago at CH 600. It's likely higher now.

Be sure to enter all the results into PoolMath
This will assist in giving you an accurate CSI number.
Keep the CSI in the 0.00 to -0.30 (negative 0.30) range to minimize scaling in the SWG.
I tried to read that link and wasn’t sure what could be causing it. Could it have been the toy in the skimmer, also? It’s still doing it despite the toy being removed.Lack of water flow allowed the pump to pull water. Air in returns come from air in the pump, which can come from a couple places.
Here is a section on troubleshooting:

Hi, thanks! I've attached a picture of how we've wired the SWG (we took the picture after disconnecting so it is not representing being hooked up). The wires from the "filter pump" appear to lead to the top middle relay and we've wired in the black wire from the RJ60 to "load 1" and the white wire to "load 2". These load points now each contain three wires. We're not sure what other devices or systems are connected to these, as when we traced the wires they appear to go out of the panel and into the ground.Welcome to TFP.
Please show us how you connected the RJ60 power to the filter pump relay. I don't see it in the picture you posted.
The circled red relay is usually the filter pump relay.
The filter pump must be active to turn on the relay with the LED lit as circled in green.

Loki,
I am not sure what drops those 'cones', but it would no longer be around my pool...
I am a big robot cleaner fan, but I suspect that that a robot cleaner would have the same problems that all your other cleaners are having..
I assume that they do not float...
Thanks,
Jim R.
