Do you turn salt cell off when adding salt?

How can I tell if my Pentair Intellichlor is working?
The easiest way to be certain if the chlorinator is working is to make sure the cell is clean by checking the needle or production lights on the chlorinator box. When operating, you should also see bubbles (hypochlorite gas) inside the chamber, producing what looks like cloudy water – that’s chlorine being created!
What should Intellichlor be set at?
What should the salt level be? The intellichlor is set to function when the salt level is between 2800 ppm and 4500 ppm. Too little, it cannot make chlorine. Too much salt and it also cannot (should not) make chlorine and can cause additional voltage issues with your pool and equipment.
