Welcome to TFP.
Sell the T-9 on eBay or Facebook Market or post it for sale in the Coffee Bar here. It will not work on an AquaTrol.
A T-15 cell can be used by changing a jumper.

Read the Wiki linked above and compare your board to what the link describes.
Put the T9 on and see what the readings are.
The only problem will be that the salinity will read about 1.3 times too high.
For example, if the salinity is 3,200 ppm, the new salinity will read 4,160 ppm, which is fine.
What is the actual salinity?

What is the actual salinity?
If you change the board to take a T-15, then the salinity will read about 1.5 times too low.
For example, if the actual is 3,400 ppm, then the reading will be 2,267 ppm.
Show the main circuit board.
You can make the board work either way.

I’m in Canada so it’s still to cold to try this but your saying I can use t9 and if I need 3200 as a reading it will read higher
You can put your salinity at 2,400 ppm and use the T9 and the salinity will read 3,200 ppm.
As long as the High Salt light does not come on, it's fine.
The High Salt LED comes on based on amps.
I do not know the exact number for the T-5 setting, but if the High Salt comes on, you can just lower the salinity.
Or, you can switch to the T15 setting and it will work as long as the Low Salt light does not come on.

So I have to buy a t15. So t 9 will not work even with jumper Thank you so much for answering me
What is the actual salinity?
Note that you need a good salt test like a K-1766 test kit.
You also need to allow the water to circulate for a while before getting a sample.

The t-9 will work for you as long as you manage the salinity.
The only issue is that the salinity reading will be off, which does not really matter as long as the High Salt or Low Salt LED do not come on.
What is the pool size?
It’s 52 inch high 24 foot roumd
When my son gets home he can take a picture of board if you neef
