There is no single "recommended" setting possible without knowing your system and what you are trying to accomplish. Are you trying to synchronize 2 energized buses, or only close the breaker when one is dead? How much voltage difference can your equipment tolerate? Is there any generation, so that frequency could be different between the 2 sources? Is there appreciable phase angle difference possible?

All these need to be taken into account. You should have a professional engineer with experience in this area determine the settings based on this information.

Those are good examples. If the OP has some understanding of his system and needs, he may be able to determine his settings from them. I do agree with your "signature" - we are only giving informed opinion and suggestions from experience/training. The OPs must take responsibility for having a technically correct solution.
