* Function name: initialize
* Parameters: none
* Return value: none
* Description: This routine initializes the analyzer for proper acquisition of data.
* The instrument is reset to a known state and the interface is cleared.
* System headers are turned off to allow faster throughput and immediate access to the data values requested by queries.
* Autoscale is performed to acquire a waveform. The signal is then
* digitized, and the channel display is turned on following the acquisition.
