Questions about HC2

[mohab 0]

I'm a home automation installer and I'm Planning to buy a Fibaro HC2 for my show room before i start offering it to my clients but first i have some questions regarding its programming and i would be grateful if someone can answer them.

1- i know of course that i can trigger the lights on using a motion detector or a door contact but can i set them to only get turned on by those triggers after sunset until sunrise?? (i saw this question asked in the forum but no clear answer)

2- regarding the sunset and sunrise time, is there a way to set the longitude and latitude so that the sunset time varies everyday with the actual sunset in every country?

3- how can i connect 2 normally closed wired motion detectors to the Universal binary sensor? and if i connect the two, do they work as a same zone or can they be used as 2 different inputs?

4- Can i connect CFL loads to the 2x1.5 Relay switch?

5- is there any compatible IR transmitting modules so i can control the TV or AC?

6- Can the system Notify me through a push message on the App if my doors are opened or a motion sensor has been breached?

7- if a certain Fibaro Relay Switch or Module is out of range, is there a signal extender or can i install another Module in between to extend the signal? (i found a topic on this issue and the answer is yes but it has to be a powered module)

Thanks and i appreciate your responses in advance
