External Form—Input

Valid input consists of a string of up to 15 digits optionally preceded by a plus sign (+) or a minus sign (-), which provides the sign (positive or negative) of the value. The sign is positive, if omitted. All other characters must be valid digits (that is, 0 to 9). Alternatively, if the map definition included named values for this component, the symbolic name of the named value can be supplied as external form input.
