Edit: I wanted to come back and say... I simply went into the Chemistry Equipment, clicked add, Intellichlor and it simply started showing the Salt numbers immediately. There was absolutely no programming.
OP: I just converted our chlorine pool to saltwater using the Pentair IC-40 unit. Wiring was mostly a breeze b/c there is a wiring diagram in the panel. Plumbing was a little trickier, but I got the job done. I don't know how to add the SWG to the Intellicenter so that I can control it via my Pentair Pool iOS app.
I did follow the wiring diagram from the power center to the Intellicenter COM port (all 4 wires). I assumed that I can just program the COM port to the SWG via the "Add Chemistry" section of the Advanced Settings, but that allows me to program the SWG but doesn't actually configure it to be available in the app. Anyone have the foggiest clue how to tell Intellicenter that the SWG is available?

I am not sure where you are expecting to find the IntelliChlor SWG in the Pentair app.

The SWG is part of the IntelliCenter and it is within the IntelliCenter pages.

The IntelliChlor is not a seperate device in the app seperate from the IntelliCenter.
 
Happy to report back… I actually didn’t need to do anything beyond adding the Intellichlor to the display. I added bags of salt to the pool today and it almost immediately started reading output for me.
