CS20 package works with Leica TS15 and TS16 Total Stations and Leica GS07 / GS16 / GS18 GPS systems.

Don’t just see data, experience data

Never before has measurement technology provided such an intuitive experience or simple navigation. Incredibly easy software, instruments you trust, help that is only a click away – these combine to form an all-encompassing solution for your most challenging demands.

Leica Captivate is the new software for the renowned Leica Nova and Viva measurement instruments. With familiar apps and touch technology, you can now capture and manage complex data with little more than a simple swipe.

Dominant performance through seamless integration

The next generation of Leica Viva and Nova measuring instruments become the world’s first self-learning total stations and MultiStation with Leica Captivate. Transforming the Leica Viva GNSS experience, this engaging software joins ultimate GNSS receiver innovation with an industry-first 3D user immersion. Leica Captivate modernises the Leica Nova scanning experience, for the first time merging the overlay of measured points, 3D models and point clouds into a single view.

Infinitely bridging the field to the office

While Leica Captivate captures and models data in the field, Leica Infinity processes the information back in the office. A smooth data transfer ensures the project stays on track. Leica Captivate and Leica Infinity work in conjunction to join previous survey data and edit projects faster and more efficiently.

Leica Active Assist

Expert help, always by your side

Imagine being in the field and coming across a problem that prevents you from finishing the job. You call your local support engineer but have trouble explaining your exact problem.

By simply pressing a button in the field software, you can activate Active Assist, and your local support engineer can securely access your device and see exactly what you see. By pressing the buttons for you, your support engineer can guide you back to full productivity within minutes. You can continue with confidence to complete the survey, and know if the problem ever arises again, you can solve it yourself after being guided step-by-step through a solution.

Handheld controllers connecting to the internet

With an integrated WiFi and 4G module (GSM/GPRS/UMTS), your Leica CS20 easily connects directly to the internet to enable Active Assist.

The Leica LTE CS20 ruggedized WinEC7 field controller features an integrated UMTS/LTE Cellular Modem, Long-Range Bluetooth, and Leica Captivate software.

The Leica CS20 controller provides the ultimate in control and convenience with complete mobility. Touch screen technology allows for comfortable and quick data processing while a stunning 3D view transforms your Leica Viva GNSS and Leica Nova scanning experiences.

The new Leica Captivate CS20 controller gives you complete control of your entire office on the go. Through the simplicity of touch, management of complex data is made extraordinarily enjoyable and actionable.

PURPOSE-BUILT

Designed for surveying professionals, this controller is optimised for all measuring and stakeout tasks with Leica Captivate. The intuitive layout and ergonomic form make it comfortable to hold and operate, enhancing productivity and accuracy on the job site.

5″ SCREEN

With a built-in 5-inch high-resolution screen, this field controller offers a clear and detailed display for all surveying data.The screen’s visibility in bright sunlight makes it ideal for use in the field with Leica Captivate apps.

LONG-RANGE BLUETOOTH

The CS20 features an internal, fully integrated long-range Bluetooth module and antenna, making it possible to work over extended distances with your total stations. Work longer from the same total station setup so you can measure more points in less time.

RUGGED

The rugged CS20 is designed for field use and can withstanding bumps, knocks, and harsh weather conditions day after day. The durability and reliability of the CS20 ensures it functions whenever
