In the Field

No Base Station.
No Subscription.
Just Survey.

Every R580 we rent comes with Trimble CenterPoint RTX active — satellite-delivered corrections that give you survey-grade accuracy anywhere on earth with a clear sky view. No base station to set up, no VRS network to connect to, no monthly correction fees.

🛰️

Satellite Corrections

CenterPoint RTX delivers corrections directly via L-band satellite signal — the same signal your GPS uses. No internet, no cellular, no infrastructure required.

🌍

Works Everywhere

Remote job site? No cell coverage? No problem. RTX works in the desert, offshore, and anywhere with a clear view of the sky. Perfect for rural Texas and beyond.

VRS Also Supported

If you already have a VRS network subscription (TxDOT, TNET, etc.), the R580 connects seamlessly via NTRIP for even faster convergence and RTK-standard accuracy.

Complete
Rental Kit

Every R580 rental ships as a ready-to-survey kit. Nothing to add — just mount your controller, set up your pole, and you're collecting data.

  • 01

    Trimble R580 GNSS Receiver

    Full-option unit with all constellations enabled (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, IRNSS). CenterPoint RTX active. 450 MHz UHF radio installed for base station reception. Trimble Maxwell 7 with ProPoint technology for challenging GNSS environments.

  • 02

    Two (2) Lithium-Ion Batteries

    Two fully charged internal batteries included. Each battery provides approximately 5 hours of field operation. Two batteries = a full workday without interruption.

  • 03

    Dual Battery Charging Kit

    Charge both batteries simultaneously overnight. Arrive on site with two fully charged batteries every morning. No downtime worrying about power.

💡 Note on the Radio

The integrated 450 MHz UHF radio is receive-only — the R580 can receive corrections from a base station broadcasting on 450 MHz. It cannot transmit. For RTX or VRS workflows, no radio is needed at all.

🔧 Every Unit Tested Before Shipping

Each R580 in our fleet is powered on, tested for GNSS tracking, RTX convergence, radio function, and battery health before it leaves our shop. You get field-ready equipment, not a gamble.

R580 vs R10 & R12

The R580 was built to deliver the same survey-grade accuracy as the R10 and R12 in a more focused, cost-effective package. For rover-only workflows — especially with RTX — it punches well above its rental price.

Rental Value ★★★★★ ★★★★ ★★★

For pure rover workflows using RTX or VRS, the R580 delivers the same field accuracy as units costing 2–3× more to rent. The IMU tilt compensation of the R12i is the only significant capability gap — if you don't need tilt, you don't need the price premium.

R580 Rental FAQ

No. Every R580 in our fleet has CenterPoint RTX active. RTX delivers satellite-based corrections directly to the receiver — no base station, no VRS subscription, no internet connection required. Simply mount the receiver, wait for convergence (~1 minute typical), and you're surveying at 2 cm horizontal accuracy. If you have a VRS subscription or access to a base, you can also connect via NTRIP for full RTK accuracy.
Yes — the R580 includes a 450 MHz UHF radio that can receive corrections from a base station broadcasting on that frequency. Important note: this radio is receive-only. The R580 cannot transmit radio corrections — it is a rover only, not a base. If you're running a base/rover setup with another user transmitting, the R580 can receive and use those corrections for standard RTK accuracy.
The R580 is compatible with any Trimble data collector running Trimble Access — including the TSC7, TSC5, TSC3, and T10x tablet. It also connects via Bluetooth or WiFi to Android devices running Trimble Mobile Manager. The receiver can be accessed via its built-in WiFi web interface for configuration without any controller. If you need a controller, we can quote a package rental including a TSC7 or TSC5.
For RTK and RTX workflows the R580 matches the R12 in positional accuracy — both achieve 10 mm + 1 ppm horizontal RTK and 2 cm CenterPoint RTX. The R580 uses the same Trimble ProPoint and Maxwell 7 engine as the R12. The primary differences are: the R12i adds IMU-based tilt compensation (pole bubble-free surveying), and the R12/R12i are IP67 rated vs IP65 for the R580. If tilt compensation is not required, the R580 delivers equivalent field results at a significantly lower rental cost.
Yes. We ship rental units nationwide via FedEx or UPS. Shipping costs are added to the rental quote. For weekly or longer rentals, we often include return shipping at no charge. Units are packed in protective cases with all accessories. Pickup is also available at our Hempstead, TX facility.
A damage deposit is required on all rentals. We offer an optional damage waiver that covers accidental damage during normal field use — ask about this when requesting your quote. The R580 is rated IP65 and is designed to survive a 2-meter drop onto concrete, so normal field use is generally fine. Intentional damage, loss, or theft is the renter's responsibility.

Trimble R580 GNSS Receiver Rental — Survey-Grade Accuracy Without the Base Station

The Trimble R580 GNSS system is a professional-grade integrated GNSS receiver designed for surveyors, GIS professionals, and construction crews who need reliable centimeter-level accuracy without the overhead of a base station setup. Powered by Trimble's Maxwell 7 chipset and ProPoint GNSS technology, the R580 tracks all available satellite constellations — GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, and IRNSS — for the best possible satellite geometry in any environment.

What makes the R580 exceptional for rental fleets is its built-in CenterPoint RTX capability. RTX is a satellite-delivered correction service that provides 2 cm horizontal accuracy anywhere on earth with a clear sky view. No base station. No cellular connection. No VRS network subscription required. For field crews working in remote areas of Texas, Oklahoma, or anywhere nationwide, RTX eliminates the single biggest logistical challenge in GNSS surveying.

Our rental R580 units are fully optioned — every available accuracy and constellation option is active. Each unit includes an integrated 450 MHz UHF receive radio for use with base stations, full WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, and NTRIP client support for VRS networks. The R580 is IP65-rated and drop-tested to 2 meters — built for real field conditions.
