I am not sure what you mean with pentagrams. But a minimum example would 
help.

But when \RemoveEmptyStaves shall do its work you must write the rest in 
the form

Rm*n


\score {
  {
    R1 R R R R R    % ignored by RemoveEmpyStaves
    R1*10
  }
  \layout {
    \context {
      \Staff
      \RemoveEmptyStaves
    }
  }
}
