A visual review looks like everything is appropriate.
The only thing I can think of is whether, on the NXT, you are calling
"ReadMessage" more than once. You should have a loop that runs for at
least 50 (or better yet 150) milliseconds. Here's why.
When you perform a read remote message request, the return code of 64
indicates that there were no immediately available queued remote
messages on the NXT. It also checks to see if a BT message is in
progress; if not, then it polls the slave devices in a round robin
fashion asking them to reply with a remote message for the indicated
queue. It takes tens of milliseconds for the poll request and its reply
to return.
Until the reply is received at the master, the "ReadMessage" request
will return queue empty error code of 64.
This implementation is kind of awkward. It relies on the user's
application program to be periodically and frequently performing the
remote "ReadMessage" requests. It is these calls to the "ReadMessage"
request that are triggering the BT messages from the master to slave to
retrieve remote messages.
