What is perfect humidity for one person and their incubator - is not the perfect humidity for another hatcher. Sometimes a few hatches/failures needs to occure before you can dial in what is best for your location.
But do calibrate your hygrometer to start - you might even want to calibrate two if you have room in the incubator. When I started, I put them in opposite corners - like my thermometers - to see if there was a difference.
Also, for me (I have an LG) - I do best to remove the plugs for the first 18 days, and during lockdown - replace the plug the hole opposite my fan (helps me hold a higher humidity easier - I live in a very dry area)
