No, they'll just turn the dial down so the needle is in the middle of the dial. I think what they look for is the needle swinging back & forth a lot. But I'm guessing that no matter what the reading, it's probably just a scam to get you into their cult so they can sell you books and "auditing" sessions. Basically, it's just a prop. Something that looks "scientific" but the only purpose is to tell the interested party that they have "engrams" in their soul which need to be removed.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
