GUI to appProgram interface

How does the InstaSPIN_MOTION_F2806xM.exe GUI communicate to running firmware (appProgram.out)? Does it use the JTAG to read/write global data structures such as gMotorVars?

    Jim,

    The InstaSPIN_MOTION_F2806xM.exe communicates to the chip over JTAG.  When the GUI is designed it is given global variable names and the out file so that it can find the address of these global variables.  That is how it does the translation from names to addresses.
