The AquaRite manual wants there to be calcium in the water. I am not sure if this is just general pool thinking like Leslie's will tell you. If the AquaRite really needs it, I would like to know since I just switched to an AquaRite SWG. Do we really need the calcium up to their recommended levels? Does it help with keeping water balance at all?

The only thing that raising the CH level would do is increase your chance of calcium scaling within the cell. The SWG should not care what the CH level is.
Interesting.... On page 4 of this pdf file (I think it's the same manual) it says,
"The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by The Association ofPool and Spa Professionals (APSP). The only special requirements for the Aqua Rite
are the salt level and stabilizer"
Emphasis added.

I agree, sounds like I shouldn't care much. 
I have got to ask, just in case I am missing something. Thanks fellas.
