This code from Set Up PIL Connectivity by Using Target Framework shows how to specify the connection between your development computer and target hardware. In the example, the target application runs on your development computer as a separate process and uses a TCP communication channel through localhost.

connection = target.create('TargetConnection');
connection.Name = 'Host Process Connection';
connection.Target = hostTarget;
connection.CommunicationChannel = target.create('TCPChannel');
connection.CommunicationChannel.Name = ...
                   'External Process TCPCommunicationChannel';
connection.CommunicationChannel.IPAddress = 'localhost';
connection.CommunicationChannel.Port = '0';

Note

Using name-value arguments, you can create the connection object with this command:

connection = target.create('TargetConnection', ...
                      'Name', 'Host Process Connection', ...
                      'Target', hostTarget, ...
                      'CommunicationType', 'TCPChannel', ...
                      'IPAddress', 'localhost', ... 
                      'Port', '0')
