Method of controlling display of operation of semiconductor manufacturing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable storage medium therefor, and system for performing display concerning operation of semiconductor manufacturing apparatus
First Claim
1. A method of controlling a display concerning a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, the method comprising:
- repeatedly acquiring a state of one or more devices included in the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus;
providing a first animation which indicates an operation of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus by displaying at least an image indicating the state of one or more devices on a display unit each time the state is acquired;
storing, in a memory, the acquired state of one or more devices and a time related to the state;
receiving an input for switching a display mode;
providing a second animation which indicates an operation of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus by displaying, on the display unit, at least one or more images one by one after receiving the input for switching a display mode, the one or more images respectively indicating the state of one or more devices, which are stored in the memory, related to one or more times including a reference time;
displaying, on the display unit, a graph including a band which indicates an alarm generated in the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, the graph having an axis corresponding to a time, one end of the band corresponding to a generation time of the alarm, and the other end corresponding to a restoration time of the alarm; and
receiving a selection of a point or the band on the displayed graph such that a time corresponding to the selected point or the generation time or the restoration time related to the selected band is set as the reference time.
