Hi Ian,
if you read in https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=40730.0, you
questions will be answered.
It's worth reading anyhow - the whole thread. You can learn a lot about
your console(s) and sensors.
In your case it is rather simple. What you call an older array similar
to the HP2561 (station ! - the console has the same name 😮) is most
likely the WH65/WS69 outdoor sensor array.
In your console (assuming that a HP25x0 console) you can register both
arrays - the WH65/WS69 and the WS80 array in parallel. As long as you
don't have a WH40 rain gauge connected, the rain data from the WH65/WS69
rain gauge would be taken by the console. If you also have a WH40 rain
gauge connected, the console would ignore the WH65/WS69 data and prefer
the WH40 data.
On second thought, you saying that you are using the Ecowitt gateway
driver, then your console is rather a GW1x00/GW2000/WH2650 or WN19x0.
But the principle is the same - only that the registration for them
happens via WS View Plus and not via the console display (HP25x0).
The whole story is called "sensor hierarchy" and applies for outdoor
T/H, rain and wind sensors. Details see
https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=40730.0 in the footnotes.
The WS80 T/H outdoor readings would also be preferred over the WH65/WS69
readings by the console.
Bottom line - you don't have to block anything - it's already done by
the sensor hierarchy. You only need to connect both outdoor arrays to
your console/hub/gateway.

Hopefully a question that Gary can answer.
I have an Ecowitt WS80 and an older Ecowitt array similar to an
HP2561. I am only using this second device for rain measurements. I
use the Ecowitt Gateway driver and used the WSView Plus app to set
things up.
Is there a simple way to block all sensor output (apart from rain) in
the HP2561 ensuring that I am receiving all other sensor output from
the WS80? Testing the driver in direct mode, it is impossible to see
from which device the data is coming from.
Thank you,
Ian
