Hi Miguel,

You haven't mentioned which target you are planning to connect to. However, in general it should be possible to create a button that can connect you to target and help you load your model on target. If you are connecting to a target over TCP/IP (like a Simulink real-time(xPC target)) then you can add a button to your UI and in it's callback use the commands for connecting to the target. For example , for Simulink real-time you can write it like below:

ip = get(handles.edit1,'String'); % This takes the ip address of Simulink Real-Time(xPC) hardware from 
%a text box from UI.You can also give directly the ip address.
setxpcenv('TcpIpTargetAddress', ip);

port = get(handles.edit2,'String');% This takes port number from a text box in UI. you can also give this %directly
setxpcenv('TcpIpTargetPort', port);

if ~strcmp(xpctargetping, 'success')
  error('Connection with target cannot be established');
% Now write the commands to load model here
