Have you considered using SystemConsole to communicate with the board?

You can put a JTAG to Avalon Master Bridge in the hardware and then use that to read and write registers as you desire.

SystemConsole is launched from the Tools menu in SOPC builder.

Once you have it working from SystemConsole there are ways to integrate that with Matlab (these will be easier in 11.0 if you can wait a month)
