broadcast Disvovery Mute/Unute - E1.20 RDM (Remote Device Management) Protocol Forums

Hello

I read in the spec at 5.3 that devices shall not respond to broadcast messages except discovery messsages.

While this makes sense for the DISCOVERY_UNIQUE_BRANCH command, I am not sure if devices must respond to a broadcast DISCOVERY_UN_MUTE and DISCOVERY_MUTE or not?

In my opnion, it will cause clashes on the bus if they all respond but maybe there is a reason for this?

Can someone please clarify this for me?

Kind regards
Bernt
