18 Martin DMX 5.3 and RDM 5.5 Splitters user manual
To solve this problem, the RDM 5.5 Splitter can be used as a data signal
filter. If the dmx only button is pressed in, the RDM 5.5 Splitter will
remove all data signals apart from DMX from the five out sockets. Note
that pressing in the dmx only button will not affect the thru socket, which
will continue to relay unmodified data signals from the in socket.
If your installation contains a mixture of (a) devices that use or are
unaffected by RDM and (b) devices that are disturbed by RDM, use
separate Splitters to send DMX/RDM to the devices in group (a) and to
send only DMX to the devices in group (b).
