that same colon and the type name.
In L5X, use a Dimension attribute on the <Tag> element.
ConsumeInfo N/A Identifies a consumed tag and provides the tag attributes.

In L5K, specify Produce_Attributes attributes.
Description Description User information about the tag.
Comment Comment Provide information about a tag component.

In L5X, this element can also contain additional attributes for other tag types.
EngineeringUnit EngineeringUnit (optional) User-specified description of what the unit of the value is, in feet, gallons, or
kilos.
Can specify EngineeringUnit <specifier>
Where the specifier is:
.bitnumber - for a bit in the tag
[element] - for an array element of the tag

There can be multiple engineering unit elements.
Max Max (optional) User-specified maximum value about qualified sub-regions of the parameter.
Only valid for the sub-regions of the parameter, which is a non-Boolean atomic datatypes.
