I believe the protocol that Crestron runs on, as well as Control4 is CA$H. it can cost $200 just to change the function of a light switch. Just kidding, but what the others have said is correct, it is pretty stable and reliable system in general, often used in commercial spaces for their AV integration. Think high end conference room. also in expensive houses Control4 uses Zigbee, and I am not sure of the actual protocol Crestron uses, but it is always installed by a dealer who is certified and keeps a tight rein on their programming software

The panel is in my kitchen directly below where I installed the jbox containing the phase coupler and outlet for PLM, I just used about 4 ft of 14/3 romex, I really wanted to get the PLM and phase coupler as close as possible to the panel. I will be moving this J-box to a closet or other place that is more air conditioned. Thanks Paul In Florida, attics can reach temperatures of 150 to 160 degrees F during a summer day, although outside air temperatures are only 95 to 97 degrees F Thanks Teken. Thank you to all who replied, you have confirmed my suspicion on my bad idea I made when it was cooler up there... now to find a better place

I have wired up a hard-wired phase coupler and and outlet that has my PLM plugged into it currently in my attic, I am curious if the oncoming summer heat of Florida is going to kill either of those devices if I keep them up there. I was not so worried during the winter but now I am reconsidering where I hid those wall warts. any thoughts?

Thank you everyone for the answers and suggestions. I do not have an actual switch wired to the Fanlinc yet as this was a new fixture installation I wired the fanlinc and Fan w/lights directly to panel. I have a KPL relay I plan on using with it, so I think for now I will just rewire the light directly to bypass the dimmer features of either KPL or Fanlinc and just cap the light load line. This has not been an issue as it is now they could only possibly dim it if they were to use Mobilinc to control fan, which happened 2 days ago when my wife was trying to adjust fan speed but hit the light side of it instead. I have the KPL and the custom Fanlinc buttons for it, just been to busy to install it, once they are in I think this wont be an issue anymore

I just installed my first Fanlinc, which happens to be a fixture that has Hue bulbs in it. as you may know the Hue bulbs dont like to be on a dimmer so as long as I keep the Fanlinc light at 100% its okay and that is okay with me as I know the conflict exists but the wife and kids could easily try to dim the hue bulbs via the Fanlinc instead of the programs I have setup to dim via the API. Sorry if this has been asked but I could not find a definitive answer by searching, but can I disable the dimming feature for lights in the Fanlinc or possibly just disable the whole light side of the Fanlinc? the bulbs are fine with always on power... thank you
