Chimera Tool®
Authenticator
We recommend the USB authenticator to users who don’t want to bind the licence to a specific computer but prefer to use it freely on any machine where they plug in the USB hardware key. This way, there’s no more waiting time when switching computers.
The Authenticator is priced at $24.9 or 249 CRD.

Take your Chimera Tool licence with you.
Switch computers without the 48-hour waiting period.
The Chimera Tool Authenticator is a USB hardware key that makes it easier to use your Chimera Tool licence across different computers.
Instead of attaching your licence to a specific PC, you can attach it to the Authenticator. Simply connect the Authenticator to the computer you want to use and log in with it.
Price: $24.9 or 249 CRD
Why use the Chimera Tool Authenticator?
The Authenticator is designed for repair technicians and service professionals who work on more than one computer.
With an Authenticator, you can:
- Switch between computers easily without the standard 48-hour waiting period
- Carry your Chimera Tool licence with you wherever you work
- Log in without entering your username and password
- Use multiple licences with one Authenticator
- Work seamlessly between your repair shop, home, or different workstations
For example, if you use Chimera Tool at your repair shop and at home, you can simply take your Authenticator with you and continue working on another computer.
One licence can still only be used on one computer at a time. The Authenticator does not allow simultaneous use of a licence on multiple PCs.
A faster way to log in
Once registered, the Authenticator lets you log in to Chimera Tool without entering your username and password every time. This makes accessing the software faster and can also help protect your credentials from keyloggers.
How does it work?
Your Chimera Tool licence can normally be attached to a specific computer. With the Authenticator, the licence can instead be attached to the USB hardware key.
When you connect the Authenticator to another computer, you can log in using the device and use your licence there — without having to transfer the licence and wait 48 hours.
Your licence travels with you, not your computer.
