Abstract
Disclosed is a substrate processing apparatus including one or more operation elements, the substrate processing apparatus includes a processing unit controlling operation of the substrate processing apparatus, and a controller controlling independently the one or more operation elements of the substrate processing apparatus, monitoring operation of the processing unit, and maintaining operation states of the one or more operation elements when the operation of the processing unit is restarted or terminated.
Claims7
A substrate processing apparatus including one or more operation elements, the substrate processing apparatus comprising:
- a processing unit configured to control operation of the substrate processing apparatus, wherein the processing unit is in an operating status including a first operating state of the processing unit being restarted for updating an operating system (OS) of the process unit and a second operating state of the processing unit being terminated due to power outage;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- receive, when the operation of the processing unit is in one of the first operating state and the second operating state, maintenance ranges of operation states of at least one operation element selected from the one or more operation elements from a source outside of the substrate processing apparatus;
- determine whether the processing unit is in the first operating state or the second operating state;
- operate, during a time when the processing unit is in the first operating, the one or more operation elements of the substrate processing apparatus to maintain the operation states of at least one operation element selected from the one or more operation elements within the maintenance ranges of the operation states;
- and
- operate, during a time when the processing unit is in the second operating state, the one or more operation elements of the substrate processing apparatus to maintain the operation states of all of the one or more operation elements.
A method of controlling a substrate processing apparatus including a processing unit, a controller, a plurality of operation elements, and a storage unit, the method comprising:
- inputting, when the operation of the processing unit is in one of a first operation state of the processing unit being restarted for updating an operating system (OS) of the process unit and a second operating state of the processing unit being terminated due to power outage, maintenance ranges of operation states of the plurality of operation elements from a source outside of the substrate processing apparatus;
- determining whether the processing unit is in the first operating state or the second operating state;
- operating, by the controller, operations of the plurality of operation elements during a time when the processing unit is in the first operating state of the processing unit to maintain the operation states of at least one operation element selected from the one or more operation elements within the maintenance ranges of the operation states of the plurality of operation elements;
- and
- operating, by the controller, operations of the plurality of operation elements during a time when the processing unit is in the second operating state of the processing unit, to maintain the operation states of all of the one or more operation elements.
A method of controlling a substrate processing apparatus including a processing unit, a controller, a plurality of operation elements, and a storage unit, the method comprising:
- determining, when the operation of the processing unit is in one of a first operation state of the processing unit being restarted for updating an operating system (OS) of the process unit and a second operating state of the processing unit being terminated due to power outage, maintenance ranges of operation states of the plurality of operation elements;
- and
- operating, by the controller, operations of the plurality of operation elements during a time when the processing unit is in the first operatingto maintain the operation states of at least one operation element selected from the one or more operation elements within the maintenance ranges of the operation states of the plurality of operation elements;
- and
- operating, by the controller, operations of the plurality of operation elements during a time when the processing unit is in the second operating state of the processing unit, to maintain the operation states of all of the one or more operation elements.
