Variable Declaration Question

If I want to convert this data structure from d-specs to free-form, which
of the examples, below, would be correct? I am having trouble with what
the Fixed Binary subfield should be; bindec() or int() and its length.

D FIDS01 DS
D STCSRP 370 371B 0
D SFPAGE 378 379B 0

==== Example #1 ====
dcl-ds FIDS01 ;
STCSRP bindec(4:0) pos(370) ;
SFPAGE bindec(4:0) pos(378) ;
end-ds;

==== Example #2 ====
dcl-ds FIDS01 ;
STCSRP bindec(9:0) pos(370) ;
SFPAGE bindec(9:0) pos(378) ;
end-ds;

==== Example #3 ====
dcl-ds FIDS01 ;
STCSRP int(10) pos(370) ;
SFPAGE int(10) pos(378) ;
end-ds;

Thank you
