I am a bit confused on the two values in the mash tab, please see image.

 
you are looking at two different numbers.  The upper number is the amount of water you are adding to the mash.  The bottom number is the volume of the mash water PLUS the volume of the grain in your mash tun.  It is a check to make sure your mash + grain is not more than your mash tun will hold.
 
Ahh, thanks very much! Fairly new to brewing and I like the software but has a lot of subtle details to figure out.
 
Welcome to brewing.  With this software, the more time and attention you put into setting up your equipment and mashing profiles, the better/more representative the results you will get in your brewing.
