I was getting the exact same sense data errors
from my 3583. I ended up doing two things. There
was a piece of clear plastic tape on the fudical
label of the I/O station that I removed. This
seemed to clear up errors on the display of the
3583. Next, I had the picker assembly replaced.
Things have been running flawlessly ever since.
