I'm sure if I had a furnace or electrician come in they could run new wires and hook it up no issues. The circuit board on the furnace isn't something I want to mess with. I came across this one and seems like a programmable one like we have now, but added wifi.
You say circuit board. Is it a zone panel that controls zone dampers ? If so it could complicate things depending on age . Honeywell is the best, and they make something called a common maker. Look into it , I think it’s simple.
