Default Battery Charging Settings

I'm finally getting around to inputting the settings for my solar charge controller for my batteries. I have some questions as to what some of the values should be.

Information:
Batteries = 2x Interstate 6V XHD in serial
Solarepic MPPT Charge Controller
Boost = Absorption

Charge Controller Settings:

Over voltage disconnect voltage = ? (16.0V default)
Charging limit voltage = ? (15.0V default, thinking 15.7V due to 15.6V equalize)
Over voltage reconnect voltage = ? (15.0V default, thinking 15.7V to match limit)
Equalize Charging Voltage = 15.6V (per Interstate Battery Charging)
Boost Charging Voltage = 15.3V (per Interstate Battery Charging)
Float charging voltage = 13.4V (per Interstate Battery Charging)
Boost reconnect charging voltage = ? (13.2V default)
Low Voltage reconnect voltage = ? (12.6V default, thinking 12.3V?)
Under voltage warning reconnect voltage = ? (12.2V default)
Under voltage warning voltage = ? (12.0V default, thinking setting to 50% or 12.14V per Interstate Battery Charging)
Low voltage disconnect voltage = ? (11.1V default, thinking to disconnect if below 25% or 11.7V per Interstate Battery Charging)
Discharge limit voltage = ? (10.6V default, thinking 11.3V per Discharge on Interstate Battery Charging)

As you can see, starting from the top and going down the voltages should be decreasing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
