So the definitive answer was that Mach has a configuration switch that turns on/off the charge pump during an e-stop. The PMDX-126 uses absence, then presence of the charge pump waveform to infer the reset condition. So I guess this is a newbie error...once I changed the configuration to "no charge pump during e-stop" it works as one would expect!
Thanks to all that helped...Steve in particular!
