After being poolstored (if that relates) when my installed decided to install a trueclear rather than aquapure for my pool(without telling me LOL) I have a new PLC 1400. Two main questions:
1) Any tips to dial it in? Ive been running my pump 24 hrs for skimming and If I want 4 FC/day that means set the cell at ~53% how do I decide if this is right? Just measure FC each day?
2) They didnt connect it to my aqualink. I know its a 22AWG 4 conductor cable. Do I need to get any specific blocks to put into either side?
 
Mine is also set to 53% but I am at 29k gallons. How sure are you of your pool volume? These do tend to over-produce. Dialing it in doesn't take long. Measure FC daily or so until you have a handle on it.

You need the 4-wire red cable connectors. You should have a free one on both ends. If not, buy the MUX kit as it comes with 4. I have not been able to find these by themselves.

You can connect 2 devices on each connector. If you already have 2 devices in each, you'll need to purchase the multiplexor.

Here is my video on connecting new devices to Aqualink.

 
> How sure are you of your pool volume?

I am pretty close. Both my salt and (previous) chlorine additions were within 10%

I am fairly certain Ill need to dial it back. I measured 11.5 PPM this morning it was 10.0 yesterday w/o any added chlorine. I turned the SWG on at 15:30.

As far as adding the SWG to the aqualink... The Aquapure has a screw on terminal, but the aqualink does not. Does that mean I need something like this: Amazon.com as well as a 22AWG 4 connector cable? Are there any third party terminal bar connectors?
