Well, I can confirm that the UC100 should see the index pulse because that is how the spindle speed is measured, and my Mach3 Turn instance does show the correct spindle speed!
Clearly the sensor is picking up the slot which is good. (There is just one slot, right?) However Mach3 isn't seeing it. You have set the card for Open Collector output, does it have a pull-up? You could select TTL output if it doesn't. Try active high, as the effective pulse length can be short or long depending on how the pulse is interpreted. For debounce, as I said you shouldn't really need it with an opto so set very low.
