The following output, I presume?

EVAL @PARMS
OB0050PR OF @PARMS =
....5...10...15...20...25
1 '**********

That seems to be an issue with the debugger and/or how the compiler handled the EXTNAME; i.e. the passed data is there, because an actual line of code that examines [or copies] the data, will /see/ what is the data at that address from the invoker.

Try the following modified EVAL request, which would be to request the same data, but in hex format for 111 bytes:

EVAL @PARMS:X 111
CPF8E28 - Variable not available to display.
