(I don't know CLIST.) Is that equivalent to what I see in the Ref.:
SET &SYSSCAN=0
You can assign &SYSSCAN a value from 0 to +2,147,483,647 (2³¹-1).
Commas? Can this loop to that max value? How long does that take?

Would it be better to save and restore the previous value?
Is 16 a particularly useful value? Has anyone ever relied on that exact value?
