Description of the columns in the table above:

  • Keyword: The actual name of the dictionary entry. These are what is used in the query language and when you fill Restrictables and Returnables. Each keyword is directly linkable: click it, or append #IonCharge to this page's address.
  • Short Description: Human-readable short text about the meaning. To be used e.g. as label text for a web-form
  • Long Description: Human-readable longer text, to be used eg. in a help-box.
  • Type: What type of data are associated with the keyword. choices are: string, float, integer, boolean.
  • Constraint: Possible contraints on the content, like ranges for a number, only certain strings (regular expression) etc.
  • Unit: The default unit, if any, for the keyword. This unit is the one used at query-time. You may however use another unit when returning data.
