SWG cell calibration

I have a BlueWorks SWG system (replaced a Hayward. I have a BW cell - that I think is going bad. I have a Hayward cell that I think is good (several years old), and also have a ChlorWorks cell. All are giving me different salt readings. Leslie's says 2800. The BW is saying 2100 - low and will not generate CL. The Hayward is saying 5100 - too high, but still generating. The CW is saying 6100 - too high, but still generating. I don't know what "truth" is, but I suspect I should trust Leslies as the baseline. Anyone know of a way to calibrate a SWG so that it will read the baseline?

g,

I would not let Leslie's tell me the time of day!!!

To determine the actual salt level in your pool I suggest that you buy your own Taylor K-1766 salt test kit. Every pool owner needs the ability to test their own pool water.

I never trust what the cell reports.

Thanks,

Jim - understand your comment about the cells. That said, if the 3 cells are reading totally different, that means there is something out of calibration some place. And, since the cell is telling the generator how to generate the CL, and if the cell is saying high salt, it will tell the systems to not generate, even if the salt count is actually lower. Does not matter to me if the cell report is wrong, I just need it to report so the system will generate CL.
