:FORMat[:DATA]
Description The FORMat[:DATA] command selects the data
format and <Length>. The <Length>
parameter is optional for all data format, its
meaning is dependent on the data format
selected.

in a <DEFINITE BLOCK RESPONSE DATA>. The
ASCii-type data is automatically identified by its
syntax. Therefore, in these cases, the FORMat
subsystem is only necessary to determine the
output format.
At *RST, ASCii is selected as the default data
format and the <Length> is set to 0.
