  pjs.define("Arr1", { type: 'packed decimal', length: 1, decimals: 0, dim: 3 });
 
pjs.define("FIELD1", { type: 'char', length: 7 });
 
pjs.define("FIELD2", { type: 'char', length: 1 });

FIELD1 = pjs.move(FIELD1, 'YARYRYY');
FIELD2 = pjs.move(FIELD2, 'Y');
 
  FIELD1.scanToArray(Arr1, FIELD2, 3);
 // Arr1 holds result = Arr1[1] + Arr1[2] + Arr1[3];[4, 6, 7]
