I had issues with my indexing on my lathe when I first got it going. I have the single slot type. I used to get rpm readings in the millions sometimes, and nothing made sense. Fixed it by; Adding a diode across the signal wires off the sensor, shielded the signal wire, and moved the signal wire away from the toroid transformer. It works flawlessly now, am very pleased with it, and have excellent results with the G76 wizard on version 1.84.001.
IMO, I think that your reflective sensor is a certain problem, and on a small diameter is bad as well. Go out to the machine and change all that out for a slotted type and I bet you'll finally be able to sleep nights for once....!
