In what units must the pressure altitude instrument's main scale be calibrated according to AMC1 CAT.IDE.H.125(a)(1)(iii) and CAT.IDE.H.130(b)?

The main scale must be calibrated in feet (ft).

What units are required for the sub-scale setting of the pressure altitude instrument, and what must it be adjustable for?

The sub-scale setting must be calibrated in hectopascals/millibars and adjustable for any barometric pressure likely to be set during flight.

Does the AMC1 CAT.IDE.H.125(a)(1)(iii) and CAT.IDE.H.130(b) specify an applicability date for the calibration requirements?

No, the section does not state any applicability date.
