New wash cryptopay question

You're going to have to gut that box and wire everything direct. It's fun, I've done two washes. This one was about 26 hours over two days of standing there terminating the wires from the bay and wiring to everywhere it needs to go. It's not really complicated, it just takes some time and a lot of focus. I can probably "talk" you through it. That system runs the time and the relays are 24VDC so they have to come out. I used relays instead of multiplexers which saved about $300. Only the main transformer and the pump contactors remained.

This one had everything labeled so it was somewhat easy. The REALLY fun one was 8 bays in three separate cabinets, nothing was labeled, and about a third of it didn't even work, so a lot of it became an educated guess.
 
It can be done like Mep said it just takes time. I am not a fan of one transformer you lose that and all the bays are down unless you have a spare

So you’re telling me, I need to do all of that to get cryptopay? I’m not sure if it’s worth it.

A wash near me has an identical setup, but they have CryptoPay and Dixmor LED6's with count-up without having to completely rewire the box.
The first picture with the two VFD's is for your automatic.
