It shouldn't be a problem as long as you "break" the connection to the field
resistor at the same time you're "making" the connection to the one you've
got in the control.  It will require using both sides of the relay (N.O. and
N. C.).  You can set the zone's reaction time to a fault condition for
slightly longer than the default if you have to.
