Problems adjusting power level in Nikon SB800

The manual for the SB800 is so comprehensive and detailed that I have trouble finding one topic. Can someone point me to the topic of adjusting the power level of the flash, and is it the same as the output or speed of the flash?
Thanks,

The manuals that come with cameras and flashes are jewels, aren't they?

In the Nikon SB-800 manual, for Power Level, see page 46 for Manual Flash.
Page 42 shows a chart of flash output ranges with and without the diffuser and with flash head zoomed.
