The dials will indicate actual movement of the table.  The dial may be different depending whether the leadscrews are metric or English.  Set up a dial indicator and measure for yourself how far table moves for one turn of the dial.  Also look carefully at the micrometer dials.  Sometimes they are marked to indicate what the divisions are.
