What is the best way to integrate this board to Home Assistant if I would like to use it with RF remote and RS485 io module? I would like to keep the original FW. Is there any example how to do that?
Thanks!

you can integrate to home assistant by MQTT protocol, so that can keep the original FW.
but you can also integrate to home assistant by ESPHome, just RF function use original FW is more easier.

Many Thanks! Are you planning to add HA MQTT autodiscovery to the firmware?
