InputNumberSlider can not be converted

Question

On the Oracle 11g database, there is a field of Number(1,0) type. When dragged and dropped from the ViewObject under the AppModuleDataControl, the field is added to the page as af:inputText w/Label. Then I converted the af:inputText to af:inputNumberSlider. After converting the field, it has f:validator and af:convertNumber as validator and converter. Then I run the program, but I receive an error message, probably a conversion error, saying *"The value is not a Number".*
*"The value must be a number"*
Is there anything I'm missing? Or is there a bug with inputNumberSlider?
Thanks in advance.
