the complete sensor hierarchy (for being registered in parallel to the
same console) is: (right trumps left)
outdoor T/H: WH65/WS69 --> WS80 --> WS90 --> WH32
wind: WH65/WS69 --> WS68 --> WS80 --> WS90
rain: WH65/WS69 --> WH40 --> WS90 (where with the latter, with latest
console firmware, a traditional rain gauge (WH65/WS69 or WH40) can be
synoptically registered and displayed with the WS90 piezo rain)
Maybe we need to restructure the thread and do some housekeeping for
being better readable 😉

Hi Rainer,
Thanks for your feedback. I have actually read the WXForum thread
several times but crucially had not picked up on the sensor hierarchy.
I was pretty sure that the WS69 sensor array was being blocked (apart
from rain) but wanted to make doubly sure and now you have confirmed that.
Thank you,
Ian

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
