Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor is a 17-inch multi-touch display built for GPSMAP 8500 glass helm installations. Its six o’clock viewing angle, anti-glare SXGA touchscreen, and compact depth make it well suited to overhead and flush-mounted helm layouts.
Overview Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor
Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor is a 17-inch multi-touch marine display designed to complement a GPSMAP 8500 black box system. Its ultra-thin profile keeps the installation clean while the six o'clock viewing angle makes this version particularly suitable for overhead or upper-helm mounting positions.
The anti-glare touchscreen supports familiar touch gestures and full 1080p video input, while LED backlighting and auto-dimming help maintain visibility in changing light. SmartMode support and broad system integration allow the monitor to work as part of a coordinated glass helm layout for navigation, sonar, gauges, media and onboard monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor
Why would an installer choose Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor?
Garmin GMM 170 Overhead Marine Monitor is designed as an overhead-friendly marine monitor for a GPSMAP 8500 black box system, giving glass helm installations a dedicated screen where standard viewing angles are not ideal. It is especially suited to upper-console positions that are viewed from below.
How does this display help in space-sensitive helm layouts?
This display uses a six o'clock viewing angle so the picture remains easier to read when the screen is mounted above the operator and viewed from below. Its shallow, ultra-thin profile also helps overhead or upper-console layouts stay cleaner and easier to integrate.
What control and display role does this product serve?
This unit is intended to work as part of a GPSMAP 8500 glass helm, where the processing hardware stays separate from the visible screen. Multi-touch control, full 1080p video input, and SmartMode support help coordinated navigation, sonar, gauges, media, and monitoring views.
What visibility features support everyday helm use?
The 17-inch format gives this marine monitor useful screen area without crowding overhead spaces, while 1280 x 1024, an anti-glare touchscreen, and LED backlighting and auto-dimming support clear viewing through changing light. That makes it a practical option when a bridge needs an additional display above the main sightline.
