So, that extra module that I've ordered. Can I run it with anything else but the main control boards?
Let's say rPi?

Please advice.

It would appear not, not without some detailed internal documentation on how the host communicates with the modules which I don't believe KNC has released.  The higher level operations are handled by a BeagleBone Black which you can buy off the shelf for $40 however the BBB doesn't connect to the modules directly. The BBB connects to a "communication board" which has the 4 (or 6 ports) and more importantly an FPGA running unknown firmware. Without that board or the ability to reverse engineer it you likely are dead in the water.
