Elite Software Programmer › ESP - Navigation › MenusUpdated Sep 2026

The Help menu in Haltech's ESP software is easy to overlook, but it's where you'll find the software version, keyboard shortcuts and the tools support may ask you to use. Here's what each item does.

Our tips

Learn the keyboard shortcuts. Most tuning time is spent editing tables, and a handful of shortcuts makes that much faster than clicking. Ten minutes with the Keyboard Reference pays for itself.

Note your version first. If you contact us about a problem, open About and tell us the ESP version you're running. A lot of issues come down to a mismatch between software and firmware versions.

Save a stability report after a crash. Save it before you restart and try again, so the details aren't lost.

The other menus are covered in File, View and Tools. Stuck with ESP? Contact us and we'll help.
