Hi Dean
That little screw is to adjust the zero. The instrument works by measuring
air flow through a small orifice to/from one chamber that is otherwise
sealed to another that is open to the atmosphere. A pressure differential is
created between the chambers as you climb or descend that causes the air to
flow until the chambers equalise. Yes, it should return to zero after a
short time with your finger on the port provided you don't vary the pinkie
pressure.
