In following the directions in the e-book, I added salt to my pool last night and am in the process of running for 24 hours. I unplugged the SWG, as instructed. Now, at 22 hours, the pool has 0 chlorine in it. Suggestions?

I would add bleach/liquid chlorine to get your FC up to the target level, then turn on your SWG to maintain that level.
Actually, what J.J.Tex suggests is the proper way to start up your SWG every season- bring your FC up to desired level with liquid chlorine and then let the SWG *maintain* it there. If ever the SWG is not running yet you need FC, use liquid chlorine. WHenever you need instant increase in FC, yup! Use liquid chlorine.
Remember that the SWG is a great feature, but works slow and steady. Algae works fast..... you have to stay one step ahead!
