/*
UL call demonstrated: ulAInLoadQueue()
Purpose: Set up the queue with available ranges
and input modes
Demonstration: Initialize and load the queue
Steps:
1. Call ulGetDaqDeviceInventory() to get the list of available DAQ devices
2. Call ulCreateDaqDevice() to to get a handle for the first DAQ device
3. Verify the DAQ device has an analog input subsystem
4. Verify the analog input subsystem has a hardware pacer
5. Get the supported ranges
6. Get the supported queue types
7. Setup the queue structure array
8. Call ulConnectDaqDevice() to establish a UL connection to the DAQ device
9. Call ulAInLoadQueue() to load the queue
10. Call ulAInScan() to start the scan of A/D input channels
11. Call ulAiScanStatus to check the status of the background operation
12. Display the data for each channel
13. Call ulAinScanStop() to stop the background operation
14. Call ulDisconnectDaqDevice and ulReleaseDaqDevice() before exiting the process
