You want to play 6 notes per beat (16th note triplets). Where you put the accent isn't relevant. 40 bpm is a good place to start. You could also play 3 notes per beat as well, which would be triplets. This would be easier at first if you want to start even slower. Does this make sense?

So if you set to 6-tuplets - which i don't recommend - it would be tup-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tup-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap -> 1+5. I recommend setting it to simple 4/4 beat at very slow bpm and just trying to count 6-tuplets in your head with metronome on. Count 1-2-3-4-5-6 1-2-3-4-5-6 - 6 notes on 1 metronome beat.
