Dear Jan

Can you explain the tdma configuration of "slot 1 0 1/1 1500 1"?

And how should I configure the cycle (previously in the rtnet.conf, I set
the TDMA cycle to 2000 and TDMA offset to 500) and the slave?

Is it ok for me to use the default configuration in tdma config script?

I have ensure that AT91 acts as the master and it is able to ping the slave
using rtping after the completion of TDMA setup. So is this enough?

Please advice. Thanks

Regards,
Chun Yeow
