Abstract
There is provided a technique that includes a processor configured to be capable of executing a process recipe to process a substrate; and a pressure controller configured to be capable of controlling a pressure of a process chamber, in which the substrate is processed, by adjusting an opening degree of a pressure regulating valve provided to an exhaust line of the process chamber, wherein when controlling the pressure of the process chamber, the pressure controller adjusts the opening degree of the pressure regulating valve and outputs information of the opening degree, and wherein while receiving the information of the opening degree from the pressure controller and monitoring an open/close state of the pressure regulating valve, the processor is configured to, when the information of the opening degree is a preset value, be capable of determining whether or not opening/closing of the pressure regulating valve happens.
