Fleck 5600SXT 32k optimal setting

[Monet33]

Hi,
Just bought a new Fleck 5600SXT 32k 1in bypass. 11x11x38 brine tank and 9x48 resin tank. Family of 2 using about 150-180 gallons a day with hardness of around 20 and little bit of iron.

Injector 1
DLFC -
BLFC 0.50

DF: Gal
RT: DF1b
CT: Fd
NT: 1
C: 23
H: 20
RS: RC
RC: 180
DO: 30
RT: 2:30
BW: 5
BO: 60
RR: 5
BF: 5
FM: p0.7

Any help would be appreciated, TIA

A little fuzzy on the hardness and iron... I presume this is a private well.

System info (not programmed)
salt lb/cuft = 7.5 ; A choice ( efficiency vs capacity)
BLFC = 0.5 ; Brine Refill rate GPM
cubic ft resin = 1 ; ft3 resin = (nominal grains)/32,000
Compensated hardness = 24 ; including any compensation
People = 2.5 ; gallons affects reserve calc
Estimated gal/day = 150 ; 60 gal per person typical calc
Estimated days/regen = 6.12 ; Computed days including reserve

Fleck 5600SXT Settings:
DF = Gal ; Units
VT = dF1b ; Downflw/, Single Backwash, black cam
CT = Fd ; Meter Delayed regen trigger
NT = 1 ; Number of tanks
C = 23.0 ; capacity in 1000 grains
H = 24 ; Hardness-- compensate if needed
RS = rc ; rc says use gallons vs percent
RC = 150 ; Reserve capacity gallons
DO = 30 ; Day Override (28 if no iron)
RT = 2:00 ; Regen time (default 2 AM)
BW = 5 ; Backwash (minutes)
Bd = 60 ; Brine draw minutes
RR = 5 ; Rapid Rinse minutes
BF = 5 ; Brine fill minutes
FM = P0.7 ; https://terrylove.com/forums/index.php?attachments/img_fleck5600sxt_flow-png.31592/

Thank you for the quick reply and I have city water. Water hardness test strip showed in between result so I guessed at the number.

Water hardness test strip showed in between result so I guessed at the number.

That is why test strips are not 'recommended'.

Waiting for hach water test kit now.

To convert to grains, divide mg/l(ppm) by 17.1
