1. A noninvasive optical based physiological measurement system comprising:

  • a plurality of light emitting diodes configured to transmit a plurality of wavelengths of light onto a tissue site of a patient;

    at least one detector configured to measure an indication of the plurality of wavelengths of light after attenuation by tissue of the patient and output a signal indicative of the attenuated light;

    one or more processors configured to receive the detector output signal and to determine a plurality of different physiological measurements, the one or more processors further configured to determine if an alarm threshold has been met and activate an alarm;

    a speaker associated with the one or more processors, the speaker configured to generate an audible signal in response to the alarm activated by the one or more processors; and

    a silence button associated with the one or more processors,wherein, when the alarm is activated for at least one of the plurality of different physiological measurements and the silence button is activated by a user, the one or more processors deactivate the alarm for a period of time, the period of time being different for each different physiological measurement of the plurality of different physiological measurements.
