1. I guess you don't mean the station (= console + sensors), but most likely the 6-in-1 outdoor sensor array (WS80) - always good to be clear in terminology  8-)
2. you don't
unfortunately the WS80 doesn't report its firmware edition.
Even with the firmware update/upgrade software it is not retrievable;
very different from the WS90. Ecowitt learnt from their WS80 experiences.
Not sure if the WS80 firmware itself is able to retrieve its version number - and if it can transmit it to the console (which again would need to be able to read and process this information).

I find myself checking the "download" folder on my PC to see what the last version I downloaded was.
