Default proper way to setup / adjust new rest

Hey guys, very newbie to bow'shere. I got measured out at the shop and got a free bow from a friend with the same specs so it does fit.

I just purchased a (whisker biscuit?) rest from dicks and put it on. Everything seems to be shooting good but I'm just curious on how to properly set it up. I know a trip to the pro shop is in the future but I'm trying to learn as much as I can.

The thing is adjustable up and down and it can tilt back and fourth. Is the rest supposed to be straight up like this "|" or tilted back like this "/" I would think it should be straight but then why would it be adjustable?

Since I changed the rest do I have to change the nocking point?

The bow seems to be shooting good, I can hit a 3" circle at 20 yards. Just want to know if it's right.

thanks.

If you have a close up of your bow with a arrow nocked using a whisker please post.
