Deflection would be if the value changes or jumps. This is usually easier to see on an analog meter, but if you're going slow enough you should be able to see it on a digital one as well. However, that step is to be done if you need to change the setting. Before you adjust it, you need to check the position of it using those feeler gauges at the top of the page I linked to earlier in this thread. If it's not in spec, then you need to turn it and watch for deflection.
