Tachographs are devices that are fitted to vehicles in order to keep track of traveling distances and speeds, along with rest times and availability. The system is created to be used predominantly with transportation trucks but over time it has spread to other domains of activity.By default, information that is recorded by a digital tachograph can’t be exported and simply read by a person due to the nature of its encoding. Though, as expected, a wide range of software tools have been developed over the years to help you out with this manner and readESM is one of them.

User-friendly interface

readESM displays a more than comprehensive GUI and enables you to load .esm, .tgd, .dd and .add files and view them in a human readable form. The application’s straightforward and simple interface earns it a comparison to Windows Notepad.Both consist of a plain main window from where you can load the tachograph created files and view their content. There are no complicated settings to go through so you won’t be wasting any time with readESM.

Export tachograph information

readESM is capable of doing two things: opening tachograph recorded data by converting it into a readable form, and exporting it in either .txt or .html format.This makes readESM a handy tool to have if you’re interested in more than just checking up on a driver’s tachograph information. It enables you to save the data on your computer and add it to various reports or a database in order to keep track of a driver's performance.

Simple and accessible

In closing, it seems that there isn’t much to readESM, but if you’re looking to simply open .esm, .tgd, .dd and .add files, view their content and export it to a readable format, then it can certainly do the job.
