Alas no! Comfort does not support IR pass through or zoning with the
FP02 or any of the IR modules.

In my opinion this would be an excellent feature for Comfort to support
but according to Chiu on the Comfort support group its implementation is
not currently planned.

With the use of ACE and expanding your outputs/inputs with a RIO board
you can at least now get some increased functionality though.

P.S. I've not put any of this knowledge into practice!

Many thanks
