Hi, Katty, The white tags that you drew arrows to are Simulink "Goto" and "From" blocks. They are used as "virtual wires" to keep the diagram cleaner. You can read about them in the Simulink on-line help, but basically, a signal drives a "Goto" block. The Goto block is given a tag (e.g. "cnt_rst"). Then one or more "From" blocks can connect to that signal by selecting the same tag name. Tags can be local or global or "scoped". These tag names are arbitrary (though it is highly recommended to make them meaningful!) and NOT exposed to the outside world (e.g. katcp).
What is exposed to the outside world are the names of the yellow blocks (software registers, GPIOs, Shared BRAMs, etc.). In spect_2048channel.png, you can see that the software register yellow block is named "cnt_rst". A slice of it (probably 1 bit) drives a Goto block with the "cnt_rst" tag. In modeinterleave.png, there is a Goto block with "cnt_rst", but it is driven by a slice of software register yellow block named "control". The "control" register is sliced in to multiple narrower signals. By examining which bits of the control register serve which purpose (a little annotation from the model designer would have been nice), you can figure out how create (or adapt) software for this model.
