Longform - HP 16500C Programmer's Manual

LONGform

Command :SYSTem:LONGform {{ON|1}|{OFF|0}}
The LONGform command sets the long form variable, which tells the
instrument how to format query responses. If the LONGform command is set
to OFF, command headers and arguments are sent from the instrument in
the abbreviated form. If the LONGform command is set to ON, the whole
word will be output. This command has no affect on the input data messages
to the instrument. Headers and arguments may be input in either the long
form or short form regardless of how the LONGform command is set.

OUTPUT XXX;":SYSTEM:LONGFORM ON"
