taco zone control boxes?

Is there a difference between a circulator 4 zone control {SR504} and I want to put it on a 6 zone valve control {ZVC406}. Did I buy the wrong Taco valve control box or is it o.k. to wire this the same way the 4 zone is.

    Outputs

    The SR series has 120V outputs for circulators and the ZVC has 24V outputs for control valves. You would fry your valve motors with a 120V output unless they indeed are 120V valve actuators (doubt it, not common).



    I would get the correct control, but suppose if a simple two-wire arrangement, you could use relays and step the voltage back down for each output. I am not that clever and like things simple, so personally, I would do it right with the correct control.
