Honored ContributorCyclone III Starter Kit Control Panel
I am curious as to how the control panel actually works. It seems to require the FPGA be reconfigured to work. How does the host machine exchange data with the FPGA to do things like turn on/off LEDs...

Honored ContributorIn my view, any data exchange through JTAG other than direct device configuration is a kind virtual JTAG activity. It may use different access points at PC side, but has no other option than routing data through virtual JTAG hub, using the respective protocol.
