I found the problem- the manual doesn't really explain this very well.
The example(s) in chapter 6 of the manual leave out any mention of how
to define the value of the chord - it turns out that it must be entered
outside the <> not inside as I had thought.

I've tried spacing and different ways of entering the material but
nothing seems to get rid of the error.
