What to adjust until the test kit arrives

While waiting for my test kit to arrive, I have been relying on the results of my Sense 2. I am not sure how accurate the readings are from the Sense 2 without the ability to double check them. So my question is what should I focus on until the test kit arrives?

Current readings from the Sense 2 today.
Water temp 83
FC 5.2
Ph 7.7
TA 200
CYA 90
CH 218

Based on pool math and FC chart; I am adding 1.5 gal of liquid chlorine today which will increase the FC to 11.4 within the target range based on the CYA level. Should I do anything to decrease the TA or should I wait to get more accurate readings from the test kit (K-2006).

Thanks
 
Until the test kit arrives only take action to keep the FC in target range

Any other movements risks whipsawing yourself if the Sense is off, and most of the other chemical adjustments don’t re-adjust easily (or adjust easily to begin with either)

My 2 cents…. First, do no harm…..
