Honored ContributorSince you are attempting to transfer only 2 bytes have you setup the read master to be 8 or 16 bits wide? I seem to recall it only being able to handle transfer lengths that are a multiple of it's data width. So if you set the read master to be 32-bit I could see it treating 2 bytes as 0 bytes and completing without issuing any reads.
The location being read from also needs to be aligned in memory as well. So if you use say a 16-bit master then your memory location needs to be on a 2 byte boundary.
