Check the scope trace in the AOP:

Is there any noise on the bus?

Is the slew rate ok? The wave

must not be triangular.

Is the signal amplitude

modulated? This condition
typically indicates noise on the
shield.

Is the voltage level ok?

Has the environment changed?
Is there a new source of noise, such as drives, motors, HT cables, or other noise sources?

Has the PA configuration been changed?

Have any new field devices been added to the bus?
