Toolbox Security Levels
By default, a username and password is not required
when running Toolbox. However, to access a secured
RTU, the Toolbox security login must be enabled and
then a configured Username and Password entered as
illustrated.
To enable the Toolbox security login, run the Toolbox
Security program (supplied with Toolbox). When asked
“Enter Access Code” enter actionuser. Select the plus
(+) button and add the username admin and a password
(eg. admin). The admin password will then become the
new Kingfisher Security Access Code. Once the admin
username is added, the security system will be enabled.
When Toolbox is next run, a Username and Password
will then be requested.
The Toolbox Security program allows new usernames and passwords to be created each with their own
security level. The default Usernames and Passwords supplied with Toolbox Security are shown below.

Configuring RTU Security
• First ensure that the Kingfisher Security driver (SECURITYxx.Dxx) is supported by the type of RTU that
is being used and that the latest firmware is loaded in the RTU (as detailed in protocols.pdf available
from www.cse-semaphore.com/mykingfisher).
• Whenever passwords, usernames or security levels are changed (using the Toolbox Security program),
it is necessary to re-download the security driver into each RTU. Note: the security driver must not be
read-only otherwise the security list cannot be changed. The security driver properties can be viewed
and changed by right-clicking the driver using Windows Explorer, selecting Properties and then
unchecking the read-only box. A custom Username (up to 16 characters), Password (case-sensitive, up
to 16 characters) and Security Level (0-5) can be defined for each user by running the Kingfisher
Security program.
• Download the security driver into the RTU. Note: the passwords configured using the Kingfisher Security
program are embedded into the security driver when it is downloaded. The RTU uses these embedded
passwords to ensure that security messages are valid. For a CP-21, the security driver will need to be
downloaded into SRAM after downloading the RTU configuration in the next step below.
• Setup port security by configuring the Port List in the RTU configuration using Toolbox. Set Port Security
for each port from Configuration, Port List. Once port security has been configured, download the
configuration into the RTU. Note: if using a CP-21, ensure Configuration, Memory Firmware Drivers is
set to 8 K.
• A secured RTU port can then be accessed by using the menu Utilities, Unlock RTU Port. This
command changes the security level of the RTU port to equal the security level of the Toolbox security
login (provided the Toolbox security level offers greater access). After two minutes of comms inactivity,
the RTU will automatically switch the port back to the configured security level.
