How to find the value of a Simulink signal running in real-time from a Matlab GUI

I'm writing a GUI programmatically to connect to a target machine which will be running a dynamic model and a control system. As part of the GUI I wish to be able to use the value of a signal (Boolean to denote on/off) as the initial state for a button within my GUI - i.e. if the signal = 1, system starts in manual, and automatic if = 0.

I have created data dictionary variables linked to the blocks which I can edit from the GUI however I was wondering if it was possible to get signals directly from the model which is running on a target machine.

I've experimented with listeners and get_param although I don't believe that these will work on a target machine. Thank you in advance!
