Narrative:

During visual approach at approximately 200 KIAS, flaps handle was placed in position #1 briefly and then position #2. ECAM message was annunciated for slats fault. ECAM procedure was followed which called for recycling of flaps. Slats remained at zero degrees but flaps extended normally. An uneventful landing was made.
