Reinforcing Tommy's point, I think your linkage section creates a data 
structure.  I pass multiple parameters by just naming them separately on 
the call instruction:

   CALL "PSCBAPI0" USING PSCRCD PSCTYP

My COBOL is barely capable and perhaps it shows, but this works for me.  
Both PSCRCD and PSCTYP are defined in as level 77 variables my working 
storage.
