Returns the value of a source. Supersedes getValue.
The list of fixed sources:

In OpenTX 2.1.x the telemetry sources no longer have a predefined name. To get a telemetry value simply use it's sensor name. For example:
Altitude sensor has a name "Alt"
to get the current altitude use the source "Alt"
to get the minimum altitude use the source "Alt-", to get the maximum use "Alt+"
value is nil for non-existing sources. all non-allowed sensors while FAI MODE is active, or if a telemetry item value has never been received
value is a table for GPS position:
lat (number) latitude, positive is North
lon (number) longitude, positive is East
pilot-lat (number) pilot latitude, positive is North
pilot-lon (number) pilot longitude, positive is East
value is a table for date/time, see getDateTime()
value is a table for battery cells(except where no cells were detected in which case the returned value is 0):
table has one item for each detected cell:
key (number) cell number (1 to number of cells)
value (number) current cell voltage
@status current Introduced in 2.8.0
source can be an index (number) (which was obtained by getFieldInfo or getSourceIndex) or a name (string) of the source.
value current source value (number), or last known telemetry item value.
isCurrent is true for telemetry sources that are within the "Sensor Lost" duration and telemetry is streaming . Always true for non-telemetry items.
isFresh is true for telemetry sources which have been recently updated and telemetry is streaming. Always true for non-telemetry items.
Getting a value by its numerical identifier is much faster than by its name. While Cels sensor returns current values of all cells in a table, a Cels+ or Cels- will return a single value - the maximum or minimum Cels value.
