What am I missing?

You've coded the RPG to expect a pointer value but the CL is
passing a character value. You either need to change the CL to pass the
address of the character variable or you need to change the RPG to accept
the character value, instead. If you do the latter, you can still map
your external data structure to the character parameter.
