Use %bin like %sst:
 
        dcl    &flda    *char    2
        dcl    &fldb    *dec    (5 0)
 
        chgvar %bin(&flda 1 2) = 5
        chgvar &fldb = %bin(&flda 1 2)

How do you make a Binary variable in CL? 
I tried the length to match the variable and the actual number supposedly returned (231 characters and I get "Length of the receiver variable is not valid."  if I make it 9999 then I get the first 150 characters. 
 
Doesn't really have to be binary, CHAR(4) set to x'00000000' will do just as fine.
About your length, post the code and let's have a look.
