like this irom:

var app = angular.module("angularApp", []);

app.controller("myConfigGenCtrl", function($scope, customService)
{
  customService.getData().then(function(response)
  {
    $scope.myTextArea = response.data; //-- scope.myTextArea is your ng-model on your text area
  });
});

app.service('customService',function($http)
{
  this.getData = function()
  {
    return $http.get('localhost:3000/data/config1100.txt');
  };
});

also, your text area attribute model should be ng-model
