How do I download code from a Motor Control Board?

I have a stepper motor control board and I was wondering if it was possible to download the code from the board back to the PC. The board is a Luminary Micro Stepper Motor Control RDK with an ARM microcontroller.

Sure as long as the manufacturer of the board didn't enable the chip features that are built in specifically to not allow this type of behavior :-) (ya know, stealing or modifying their product). Start with the data sheet and user's guide for the MCU, it should tell you everything you want to know. Most likely they blew the JTAG fuse, enabled Code Read Protect, or used some other mechanism to prevent this. You might check for bootstrap loader (BSL) functionality as well.
