WN32 with WS90

Ecowitt HP2560/WS90 combo.
I installed a WN32 which overrides the WS90 for outdoor temp/humid. This is what I wanted.
I'm wondering if there is still a way to access the WS90 temp/humid without disabling the WN32?

if you have a second console/gateway, you can do this.
In one you register the WN32, in the other not (and mark it "disabled").
You are not disabling the sensor. That would mean to take out the batteries.
You are only telling your console to use or not to use the WN32.
Exactly speaking it is not the WN32 which overwrites the outdoor T/RH readings of the WS90 - that's loose language.
It's the console which adhering to a set of rules called sensor hierarchy prefers the WN32 readings over the WS90 T/RH readings.
Both are received but only one is displayed (the so-called "Highlander" principle: there can only be one).

I solved this by getting a second receiver (GW1200). It only cost around $30.
