Hey Marc,
Thanks for the reply!  My screen is oriented in Portrait, and for some reason it cuts off  some of the Hicon Plugin Config window, however, I could read "Dere..." on the right side of my screen, so I unchecked that box assuming that was it and it worked.  Now Mach is behaving almost how I want it to.  It still dereferences the Axis when I use the Ref All button, but when I just home them individually it keeps them referenced when I Toggle Mach enable state.  This I can live with no problem!!
Thanks for the help!
