It is set up a little fiddly. Sclaverandventil screw completely and loosen the brass screw on the measuring device so far that the internal rubber seal fits over the valve. Solid and press on evenly.
Schrader valves (Schrader also called) are also going according to the description, but I have not tested. Therefore you have to remove the thumbscrew.
Difference between the measurements I could not tell.
My thanks to the authors of Wikipedia for the many synonyms.
