1. A quality control system comprising:

  • a noninvasive optical sensor configured to detect light attenuated by body tissue of a patient and output a detector signal responsive to the detected light;

    a patient monitor configured to process the detector signal to determine measurement values for one or more physiological parameters of the patient; and

    an insert shaped generally to mechanically mate with surfaces of the optical sensor, the insert having optical properties, wherein when the insert is properly placed within the sensor and irradiated by the sensor, the monitor processes detector signals, wherein the patient monitor provides display indicia indicative of whether the processed detector signals generate values within a predetermined range of values, the predetermined range associated with the optical properties of the insert.
