Should I leave the CYA & PH alone for now? I have not turned on the SWG yet, still waiting for FC to come down.

Nothing to adjust.
Add acid when pH reaches 8.
If you have a Hayward SWCG, you want your Salt level closer to 3000 ppm. Or you will have issues.

In Pool Math, go to settings and enable CSI tracking. You'll want to monitor that value. Do your best to maintain CSI between -0.30 and 0.0 to reduce scaling tendencies.
I’ve been wondering why I’ve had to manually enter a water temp and CSI wasn’t being tracked, for more than 2 years. I had water term tracking turned off. Oops.
The salt has been high from the start. We did drain from one end of pool adding water at the other end. I’m assuming this is the only way to get it down?
My CSI says it looks good. The number on the 1st screenshoot was 5 days ago when we finished slamming. I turned CSI off after that because I read it wasn’t import to track. I re-entered my test results from an hour ago and this is what it’s showing me now.

No worries. It’s all new to us still. It’s good to know why CSI is important to track for some.
