I'm close to pulling the trigger on the Coinless system for my wash. I have the Monex readers still coming for the bays but I'd also like to add Coinless to bays and vacs. I haven't seen discussion on installing the devices so I figured I'd start one. For my bays I'll have 1 of their 4 relay Coinslayer units and 2 single Coinitos wired through the cabinet and Coinitos in the timer boxes for the vacs. These devices run off 110v AC or DC, not 24V AC, suggestions for best components to use?

Coinless wiring

The options I'm looking at now are:
1. Mount Coinless devices near wall by AC outlets with the modems, run multi conductor cable from there to pump stand in middle of room.
2. Install Coinless devices in the cabinet. The cabinet wiring is something I have not touched yet. I assume there is 110VAC to pull from in there somewhere.

Cool I figured it'd be the cleanest way. Can I tie all 6 common wires to any 24v common at 1 point and then each signal wire to a bay?
Yep! I just ran one common to the 4 port device then put a short jumper wire to the other 3 relays. You can do the same but jump a wire to the two single devices as well. Then you just need one wire from each bay to each relay.
I'm thinking i can get it wired in cleanly with some lever nuts.
I use those on my last install and they are clean and easy to use. Definitely the way to go.
