@status current Introduced in 2.0.0, expanded in 2.1.7, radio type strings changed in 2.2.0, os name added in EdgeTX 2.4.0

Example

This example also runs in OpenTX versions where the function returned only one value:

local function run(event)
  local ver, radio, maj, minor, rev, osname = getVersion()
  print("version: "..ver)
  if radio then print ("radio: "..radio) end
  if maj then print ("maj: "..maj) end
  if minor then print ("minor: "..minor) end
  if rev then print ("rev: "..rev) end
  if osname then print ("osname: "..osname) end
  return 1
end
