Ortlieb Mounting Question

I'm new to Touring and Panniers.
What is the best position to have the lower anchoring hook? Should it face forward or back and should I have it high or low and should it go around one or more stays? I'm seeking a shortcut to trial and error methods. And when you install and remove them, do leave the lower hook alone or open and close it.

I have Ortlieb Packer Plus with an oval track for the lower hook, vintage Blackburn rear rack, and a 1985 Trek 620.
