Abstract: According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a gas line whose gas flow rate is to be edited by a user can be confirmed. There is provided a technique that includes: (a) displaying, on a recipe edit screen, a parameter setting region configured to set control parameters including a gas flow rate of a flow rate controller and a gas pattern screen configured to set an opening/closing state of a valve; (b) editing the recipe on the recipe edit screen; and (c) processing a substrate by performing the recipe edited in (b). When the gas flow rate of the flow rate controller is set on the parameter setting region, a flow rate controller on the gas pattern screen in association with the flow rate controller whose gas flow rate is set on the parameter setting region is clearly specified.

Abstract: According to one aspect of a technique the present disclosure, there is provided a processing apparatus including: an apparatus controller including a memory storing apparatus data containing monitor data containing sensor information and an alarm indicating a failure detected based on the sensor information and an alarm analysis table containing analysis items. The apparatus controller is capable of outputting the alarm containing an alarm ID for specifying a type and an occurrence time of the alarm; specifying candidates of the analysis items from the alarm ID; acquiring monitor data corresponding to the candidates; determining a rank of the cause of the alarm according to a difference between monitor data at the occurrence time and a predetermined threshold value; and displaying a relationship between the monitor data and the threshold value. The display screen displays an occurrence history of the alarm and history of acquiring the monitor data.

Abstract: A teaching jig includes: a first plate that determines a substrate loading position in a forward/backward direction with respect to a substrate holder which holds a substrate; a second plate that determines the substrate loading position in a leftward/rightward direction with respect to the substrate holder, the second plate being installed to be perpendicular to the first plate and movable in the forward/backward direction; and a positioning target pin installed in the first plate.
