 本願発明に係る不具合処置支援方法によれば、不具合処置支援情報収集工程の実行により収集される示唆情報が、その示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序を人が認識可能な方法で報知装置により報知されるため、電子回路製造システム構成装置(以下、構成装置と略称することがある)に不具合が発生した場合に、ユーザや、メーカから派遣されるサービスマンは、その不具合に対応する示唆情報を、その示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序と共に知ることができる。
 条件を同じくする複数の構成装置に発生する不具合には一定の傾向があることが多い。例えば、各構成装置が使用される環境毎や、機種,バージョン,使用ハードウエア種,累積作動量,使用期間等毎に、同様の不具合が発生することが多いのである。1種類の不具合(以下、症状と略称することがある)の原因が1つである場合には、その症状を解消するのに有効な処置も1つであって、症状を速やかに解消させ得るのであるが、原因が複数ある場合には長時間を要することがある。示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序は、過去に発生した同種の症状の、可能性のある複数の原因(あるいは有効処置)のうち、実際にそうであった数あるいは割合の多さを表すものであるから、現に現れている症状の原因でもある確率が高く、確率の高い原因に対応する処置から順に試せば、その症状を解消するのに要する時間が短くて済む確率が高くなる。
 また、示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序は往々にして累積作動量,使用期間等と共に徐々に変化するものであり、また、同じ種類の不具合をさらに簡単にあるいは安価に解消し得る方法が新たに発見されることもあるから、不具合処置支援情報収集工程の実行を続けていれば、その変化する傾向や新たな発見に応じて適切な処置を講じることが可能となる。
 さらに、示唆情報の収集や統計的処理等が自動的に行われ、報知装置により報知される内容も自動的に更新されるようにしておけば、ユーザやサービスマンは示唆情報を常に最新の「的中する可能性の高い順序」と共に得ることができ、その分、実際に現れている症状を短時間で解消し得る確率が高くなる。
 そして、本願発明に係る電子回路製造システムによれば、記憶装置に記憶された不具合処置支援情報に基づいて、示唆情報が、その示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序を人が認識可能な方法で報知装置により報知されるため、不具合処置支援方法の実施により得られるのと同様の効果が得られる。ただし、不具合処置支援情報の収集が電子回路製造システム自体によって実行されることは必ずしも不可欠ではない。示唆情報の収集が、さらには収集された示唆情報の統計的処理も、電子回路製造システムとは別のシステムによって行われ、それら収集や統計的処理の結果が電子回路製造システムの記憶装置に記憶させられてもよいのであり、その記憶も、インタネット等のコンピュータネットワークを経るなどして、自動的に行われてもよく、ユーザやサービスマンの操作に基づいてCD等から行われてもよい。
According to the failure treatment support method according to the present invention, the notification information is reported in a method that allows a person to recognize the order in which the suggestion information collected by the execution of the failure treatment support information collection step is likely to be correct. Therefore, when a problem occurs in the electronic circuit manufacturing system component device (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a component device), a user or a service person dispatched from the manufacturer suggests that the defect correspond to the defect. Information can be known along with the order in which the suggestion information is likely to be correct.
In many cases, defects occurring in a plurality of component devices having the same conditions tend to have a certain tendency. For example, the same problem often occurs for each environment in which each component device is used, for each model, version, hardware type used, cumulative operation amount, usage period, and the like. When there is only one cause of one type of malfunction (hereinafter, sometimes abbreviated as a symptom), there is one effective treatment to resolve the symptom and the symptom can be resolved quickly. However, if there are multiple causes, it may take a long time. The order in which the suggestion information is likely to be correct is the number or proportion of possible causes (or effective treatments) of the same type of symptoms that occurred in the past. Since it is expressed, there is a high probability that it is also the cause of the symptom that is actually present, and if the treatment corresponding to the cause with the high probability is tried in order, the probability that the time required to eliminate the symptom can be shortened increases.
In addition, the order in which the suggestion information is likely to be correct often changes gradually with the cumulative operating amount, period of use, etc., and the same type of trouble can be solved more easily or cheaply. Therefore, if the defect treatment support information collecting process is continuously executed, it is possible to take appropriate measures according to the changing tendency and the new discovery.
Furthermore, if the suggestion information is automatically collected and statistically processed, and the content notified by the notification device is automatically updated, the user or serviceman always keeps the suggestion information up to date. The order that is likely to be hit ”can be obtained, and accordingly, the probability that the symptoms that are actually appearing can be resolved in a short time increases.
According to the electronic circuit manufacturing system according to the present invention, the person can recognize the order in which the suggestion information is likely to be correct based on the failure treatment support information stored in the storage device. Since the information is notified by the notification device in the method, the same effect as that obtained by the implementation of the failure handling support method can be obtained. However, it is not always indispensable that the collection of defect treatment support information is executed by the electronic circuit manufacturing system itself. The collection of suggestion information and the statistical processing of the collected suggestion information are also performed by a system different from the electronic circuit manufacturing system, and the results of the collection and statistical processing are stored in the storage device of the electronic circuit manufacturing system. The storage may be performed automatically via a computer network such as the Internet, or may be performed from a CD or the like based on the operation of a user or a service person.

In the figure, versions A and B are shown as different versions of the constituent devices of the electronic circuit manufacturing line 10, and the display 50 and the storage 52 are the display devices of the electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40. It is a storage device. The electronic circuit manufacturing support apparatus 40 is further connected to a database 58 of a call center 56 via the Internet 54. FIG. 2 shows a state in which an electronic circuit manufacturing system mainly composed of one electronic circuit manufacturing line 10 is connected to the call center 56, but in actuality, the call center 56 is the entire electronic circuit manufacturing system manufacturer. A call center is connected to a large number of electronic circuit manufacturing systems owned by a large number of users.
 上記データベース58は、上記多数の電子回路製造システムに発生する各種の不具合(症状)をオペレータやサービスマンが解消する作業を支援するための示唆情報を各種不具合と対応付けた不具合処置支援情報を記憶しており、この不具合処置支援情報が定期的に各電子回路製造支援装置40へ自動で供給され、ストレージ52に記憶される。
 ただし、各電子回路製造支援装置40から要求があった場合に、その要求に応じて不具合処置支援情報を供給するものとされてもよく、その場合には、各電子回路製造支援装置40が、その支援装置40が管轄する電子回路製造システムに現に発生している不具合の種類をデータベース58に報知し、その報知された不具合の種類に対応した示唆情報が各電子回路製造支援装置40に供給され、ストレージ52に記憶されるようにすることも可能である。
The database 58 stores failure treatment support information in which suggestion information for assisting an operator or service person to solve various failures (symptoms) occurring in the numerous electronic circuit manufacturing systems is associated with various failures. The failure treatment support information is automatically supplied to each electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 periodically and stored in the storage 52.
However, when there is a request from each electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40, it may be configured to supply failure countermeasure support information in response to the request, in which case each electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 The database 58 is notified of the types of defects that are currently occurring in the electronic circuit manufacturing system under the jurisdiction of the support apparatus 40, and suggestion information corresponding to the reported types of defects is supplied to each electronic circuit manufacturing support apparatus 40. It is also possible to store in the storage 52.
 上記データベース58は、(a)上記多数の電子回路製造システムに実際に発生した不具合の種類と、(b)その不具合についての示唆情報(本実施例においては、不具合の原因およびその不具合の解消のための処置として実際に有効であったものである有効処置の両方)とを対応付けて不具合処置支援情報として記憶し、収集する機能を有している。そのために、各電子回路製造支援装置40は実際に不具合が発生し、それが解消される毎に、新たな不具合処置支援情報をコールセンタ56を経てデータベース58に供給するようにされている。 The database 58 includes (a) the types of defects actually generated in the numerous electronic circuit manufacturing systems, and (b) suggestion information about the defects (in this embodiment, the cause of the defects and the resolution of the defects). Both of the effective treatments that are actually effective as the treatments for this purpose are stored in association with each other as fault treatment support information and collected. For this reason, each electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 is configured to supply new failure handling support information to the database 58 via the call center 56 every time a failure actually occurs and is resolved.
 上記不具合処置支援情報の収集についてさらに詳しく説明する。システムコントローラ38は、通常のシステムコントローラと同様に、それが管轄する電子回路製造システムの生産計画情報,生産レシピ(JOBデータ),構成装置情報等の各種制御用情報を記憶する記憶装置を備える。構成装置情報は、各構成装置の機種,バージョン,製造番号,累積作動量および使用期間の長さの情報を含み、データベース58においては製造番号から使用ハードウエア種を特定することが可能である。
 システムコントローラ38は、さらに、コールセンタ56を経てデータベース58にアクセスする機能を備えている。直接データベース58にアクセス可能とすることもできるが、不具合処置支援情報は多大な努力によって収集される貴重なものである上、公開すべきではない技術情報を含んでいるため、予め登録されているシステムコントローラ38のみのデータベース58へのアクセスを許容するために、まずコールセンタ56においてその審査が行われるようにされているのである。この審査はシステムコントローラ38に付与された識別コードの照合等により、人により為されるようにしても自動で為されるようにしてもよい。
The collection of the trouble handling support information will be described in more detail. The system controller 38 includes a storage device that stores various control information such as production plan information, production recipe (JOB data), and component device information of an electronic circuit manufacturing system under its control, as in the case of a normal system controller. The component device information includes information on the model, version, serial number, cumulative operation amount, and length of use period of each component device. In the database 58, the type of hardware used can be specified from the serial number.
The system controller 38 further has a function of accessing the database 58 via the call center 56. Although it is possible to make the database 58 directly accessible, the failure treatment support information is preciously registered because it contains valuable technical information collected by great efforts and should not be made public. In order to allow access only to the system controller 38 by the system controller 38, the call center 56 first performs an examination thereof. This examination may be performed by a person or automatically by collating the identification code given to the system controller 38 or the like.
 前述のように、システムコントローラ38は構成装置情報を記憶しているため、実際に構成装置に不具合が発生し、その不具合が解消される毎に、不具合の種類と、その不具合の原因および有効処置である示唆情報とを、構成装置情報と共にデータベース58に供給する。そして、データベース58においては、供給された情報が機種毎に分類されて収集されるとともに、解析される。例えば、部品装着機20を構成する装着モジュール32が同一機種で、バージョンAとバージョンBとが存在する場合を例とすれば、不具合の種類「サーボエラー」の原因が「バージョンA」については「ハーネス不良」,「コネクタ接触不良」,「サーボアンプ不良」,「その他」であり、有効処置が、「ハーネス交換」,「コネクタ接触不良の解消」,「サーボアンプ交換」,「その他」であって、記載の順序が早い原因および有効処置の件数が多いと解析され、「バージョンB」については原因が「サーボアンプ不良」,「ハーネス不良」,「その他」であり、有効処置が、「サーボアンプ交換」,「ハーネス交換」,「その他」であって、記載の順に件数が多いと解析される。この解析が統計的処理の一例である。
 なお付言すれば、この例では原因が「ハーネス不良」,「コネクタ接触不良」,「サーボアンプ不良」,「その他」であり、原因が判れば有効処置も自明であるため、「原因」と「有効処置」との両方を記憶させるのは無駄のようであるが、不具合の種類によっては、原因から有効処置が自明でないこともあるため、本実施例においては、示唆情報が「原因」と「有効処置」との両方を含むようにされている。また、原因や有効処置が1つのみの場合は、勿論、1つのみが報知される。
As described above, since the system controller 38 stores the component device information, each time a defect occurs in the component device and the defect is resolved, the type of the defect, the cause of the defect, and the effective action Is provided to the database 58 together with the component device information. Then, in the database 58, the supplied information is classified and collected for each model and analyzed. For example, in the case where the mounting module 32 constituting the component mounting machine 20 is the same model and version A and version B exist as an example, the cause of the failure type “servo error” is “version A”. Harness failure ”,“ connector contact failure ”,“ servo amplifier failure ”,“ others ”, and effective actions are“ harness replacement ”,“ removal of connector contact failure ”,“ servo amplifier replacement ”,“ others ” The reason for the early description order and the number of effective actions are analyzed. For "Version B", the causes are "Servo amplifier failure", "Harness failure", "Other", and the effective action is "Servo It is analyzed if the number of cases is “amplifier replacement”, “harness replacement”, “others”, and the number of cases increases in the order of description. This analysis is an example of statistical processing.
In addition, in this example, the cause is “harness failure”, “connector contact failure”, “servo amplifier failure”, “other”, and if the cause is known, the effective treatment is also obvious, so “cause” and “ It seems useless to store both “effective treatment”, but depending on the type of failure, the effective treatment may not be obvious from the cause. Therefore, in this example, the suggestion information includes “cause” and “ And "effective treatment". Moreover, when there is only one cause or effective treatment, of course, only one is notified.
 以上の説明では、示唆情報が機種毎に分類して収集され、バージョン毎に解析されるものとしたが、不具合の中には、使用ハードウエア種,累積作動量および使用期間の長さのいずれかに応じて原因や有効処置の傾向が変わるものもある。バージョンは同じであるが、実際に使用されたハードウエアのメーカが異なったり、メーカは同じであっても製品が改良されたりすることがあり、また、累積作動量や使用期間の長さが増すにつれて発生し易くなる不具合があるからである。そのため、本実施例においては、不具合の種類と、その不具合の原因および有効処置との情報が、機種およびバージョンの情報のみならず、使用ハードウエア種,累積作動量および使用期間の長さの情報も共にデータベース58に収集され、不具合の中に、使用ハードウエア種,累積作動量および使用期間の長さのいずれかの違いにより発生傾向が変わるものがある場合には、その傾向も加味して示唆情報が解析される。解析の仕方は、必ずしも当初から決められていることが不可欠ではなく、収集された示唆情報群の傾向に基づいて決定されるようにすることも可能なのである。 In the above explanation, suggestion information is classified and collected for each model and analyzed for each version. However, some of the problems include the type of hardware used, the cumulative operating amount, and the length of the usage period. Depending on the situation, the cause and the tendency of effective treatment may change. Although the version is the same, the hardware manufacturer actually used may be different, the product may be improved even if the manufacturer is the same, and the cumulative operating amount and the length of use increase. This is because there is a problem that is more likely to occur. Therefore, in this embodiment, the information on the type of failure, the cause of the failure and the effective action is not only information on the model and version, but also information on the type of hardware used, the cumulative operating amount, and the length of the usage period. Are collected in the database 58, and if some of the defects have a tendency to change due to differences in the type of hardware used, cumulative operating amount, or length of use period, take that tendency into account. Suggestion information is analyzed. The analysis method is not necessarily determined from the beginning, but can be determined based on the tendency of the collected suggestion information group.
 本実施例においては、以上説明したように、不具合の種類と、その種類の不具合の原因および有効処置の両方である示唆情報とを対応付けて不具合処置支援情報としてデータベース58に記憶させられる。この工程が不具合処置支援情報収集工程の一例であり、この工程は電子回路製造システムのユーザとメーカとの共同によって実施される。
 したがって、本実施例においては、ユーザの所有する電子回路製造支援装置40と、公衆回線網によるインタネットと、メーカの所有するデータベース58とにより、不具合処置支援情報収集システムが構成されていることになり、データベース58を記憶装置と考えることもできる。
 また、前述のように、データベース58に収集され解析された不具合処置支援情報は定期的に各電子回路製造支援装置40へ供給され、ストレージ52に記憶されるため、ストレージ52にはほぼ最新の不具合処置支援情報が記憶されていることとなり、本実施例においては、ストレージ52により不具合処置支援情報を記憶する記憶装置が構成されていると考えることもできる。
In the present embodiment, as described above, the type of failure and the suggestion information that is both the cause of the failure and the effective treatment are associated with each other and stored in the database 58 as failure treatment support information. This process is an example of a failure treatment support information collecting process, and this process is performed in cooperation with the user of the electronic circuit manufacturing system and the manufacturer.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the electronic device manufacturing support device 40 owned by the user, the Internet by the public network, and the database 58 owned by the manufacturer constitute a failure handling support information collection system. The database 58 can also be considered as a storage device.
Further, as described above, the failure treatment support information collected and analyzed in the database 58 is periodically supplied to each electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 and stored in the storage 52. Therefore, the storage 52 has almost the latest failure. The treatment support information is stored, and in the present embodiment, it can be considered that the storage device configured by the storage 52 stores the failure treatment support information.
 いずれにしても、図1に示す電子回路製造ライン10を主体とする電子回路製造システムのいずれかの構成装置に不具合が発生した場合に、ストレージ52に記憶されている不具合処置支援情報の中から、現に発生している不具合の種類に対応する示唆情報がディスプレイ50に表示される。そのためには、現に発生している不具合の種類が特定されることが必要であり、本実施例においては、システムコントローラ38が各構成装置の制御装置と共同して不具合が発生した構成装置と不具合の種類とを自動で特定する機能を有するものとされている。また、システムコントローラ38には、オペレータあるいはサービスマンが、PDA42やシステムコントローラ38に付属のキーボード44等の入力装置を使用して、発生した不具合の種類の情報を入力することも可能とされている。そのため、上記入力装置には、オペレータ等の操作により、発生した不具合の種類の特定を、自動特定機能によるか手動入力によるかを選択し得る操作部が設けられている。 In any case, when a failure occurs in any of the constituent devices of the electronic circuit manufacturing system mainly including the electronic circuit manufacturing line 10 shown in FIG. Suggestion information corresponding to the type of defect currently occurring is displayed on the display 50. For this purpose, it is necessary to specify the type of the fault that has actually occurred. In the present embodiment, the system controller 38 and the control apparatus of each constituent apparatus cooperate with the constituent apparatus in which the fault has occurred and the fault. It is assumed that it has a function of automatically specifying the type of the. The system controller 38 can also be used by an operator or service person to input information on the type of failure that has occurred using an input device such as the PDA 42 or the keyboard 44 attached to the system controller 38. . For this reason, the input device is provided with an operation unit that can select whether the type of the defect that has occurred is determined by an automatic identification function or by manual input by an operation of an operator or the like.
 上記示唆情報(本実施例においては不具合処置支援情報)の表示の一例を、前述の部品装着機20を例として、図3に示す。部品装着機20がバージョンAのものであれば、図3(a)に示すように、「サーボエラーが発生しました。」との不具合の種類の表示と、エラーコード「0000001E」とが表示され、それと共に、、有効と予想される処置(過去に有効であった処置である有効処置)が「1.ハーネスを交換して下さい。2.コネクタを確認してください。3.サーボアンプを交換して下さい。」というように、すべての有効処置が一括して、しかも過去に「サーボエラー」の原因ないし有効処置であった件数の多いものから順に表示される。また、部品装着機20がバージョンBのものであれば、図3(b)に示すように、「1.サーボアンプを交換して下さい。2.ハーネスを交換して下さい。」と表示される。これにより、オペレータ等はこの表示の順序が早い有効処置(示唆情報)ほど的中する可能性が高いことを認識することができる。
 なお、上記表示と共に、各有効処置の的中件数,的中率等、的中する可能性の高さを示す数値が同時に表示されるようにしてもよい。また、有効処置の前記「その他」については、「以上の他、現在のところお勧めできる処置はありません。」と表示されるようにしても、何も表示されないようにしても、有効であると推測される処置が順不同に羅列されるようにしてもよい。
FIG. 3 shows an example of the display of the suggestion information (in this embodiment, trouble handling support information), taking the component mounting machine 20 as an example. If the component mounting machine 20 is of version A, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the display of the type of failure “Servo error has occurred” and the error code “0000001E” are displayed. Along with that, the treatment that is expected to be effective (effective treatment that was effective in the past) is “1. Replace the harness. 2. Check the connector. 3. Replace the servo amplifier. All effective actions are displayed in a lump sum, and in order from the largest number of cases that were the cause or effective action of “servo error” in the past. If the component mounting machine 20 is version B, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), “1. Replace the servo amplifier. 2. Replace the harness.” Is displayed. . As a result, the operator or the like can recognize that the effective treatment (suggestion information) with the earlier display order is more likely to be hit.
In addition to the above display, numerical values indicating the likelihood of hitting, such as the number of hits and hit rates for each effective treatment, may be displayed at the same time. In addition, regarding the “others” of the effective treatment, it may be effective whether it is displayed as “There is no other recommended treatment at the present time” or nothing is displayed. The presumed treatments may be listed in random order.
 以上の説明から明らかなように、システムコントローラ38と各構成装置の制御装置との、互いに共同して不具合が発生した構成装置と不具合の種類とを自動で特定する部分が不具合種自動特定装置を構成し、システムコントローラ38と、PDA42やシステムコントローラ38に付属のキーボード等の入力装置との、互いに共同して、入力情報に基づいて不具合が発生した構成装置と不具合の種類とを特定する部分が不具合種手動特定装置を構成しており、それら自動あるいは手動の不具合種特定装置と、電子回路製造支援装置40のディスプレイ50とが共同して、「電子回路製造システム構成装置に不具合が発生した場合に、その発生した不具合の種類と、記憶装置に記憶された不具合処置支援情報とに基づいて、示唆情報を、その示唆情報が的中する可能性の高い順序を人が認識可能な方法で報知する報知装置」を構成している。 As is clear from the above description, the system controller 38 and the control device of each component device automatically identify the component device and the type of the failure in which the failure has occurred in cooperation with each other. The system controller 38 and an input device such as a keyboard attached to the PDA 42 or the system controller 38 are configured to jointly identify a component device in which a failure has occurred and the type of the failure based on input information. The failure type manual identification device is configured, and the automatic or manual failure type identification device and the display 50 of the electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 cooperate to form “when a failure occurs in the electronic circuit manufacturing system component device”. In addition, based on the type of the trouble that occurred and the trouble treatment support information stored in the storage device, the suggestion information is Suggesting information human high order likely to hit constitutes an alarm device "for notifying in a recognizable way.
 本実施例においては、上記のように、電子回路製造支援装置40のディスプレイ50に不具合処置支援情報が表示されるようになっているため、不具合の発生に起因して自動で、あるいは発生した不具合を解消するために手動で、不具合が発生した構成装置が電源OFFの状態とされていても、不具合処置支援情報を得ることができる利点があるが、不具合処置支援情報(あるいは示唆情報)が、不具合が発生した構成装置自体のディスプレイに表示されるようにすることも可能であり、そのようにすれば、オペレータやサービスマンが不具合が発生した構成装置の近くに留まったままで、不具合処置支援情報を取得することができる利点がある。さらに、PDA42のディスプレイに不具合処置支援情報が表示されるようにすることも可能であり、そのようにすれば、オペレータやサービスマンが任意の位置で不具合処置支援情報を取得することが可能となる。 In the present embodiment, as described above, since the trouble treatment support information is displayed on the display 50 of the electronic circuit manufacturing support apparatus 40, the trouble that has occurred automatically or has occurred due to the occurrence of the trouble. In order to solve the problem, there is an advantage that trouble handling support information can be obtained even if the component device in which the trouble has occurred is in a power-off state, but the trouble handling support information (or suggestion information) It is also possible to display it on the display of the component device itself in which the problem has occurred, so that the operator or service person stays near the component device in which the problem has occurred, and the troubleshooting support information There are advantages that can be obtained. Furthermore, it is also possible to display the failure treatment support information on the display of the PDA 42, so that the operator and the service person can acquire the failure treatment support information at an arbitrary position. .
 前記実施例においては、電子回路製造支援装置40とコールセンタのデータベース58とのインタネットを利用した共同により、不具合処置支援情報の収集が行われるようになっていたが、サービスマンに不具合解消報告を義務付けておき、その報告に基づいて手動でデータベース58に記憶させられるようにすることも可能であり、データベースを1工場あるは1ユーザ内に設け、1工場あるは1ユーザの範囲内で不具合処置支援情報の収集が行われるようにすることも可能である。
 また、1つの電子回路製造システムを構成する複数種類の構成装置に関する不具合処置支援情報が収集されるようにすることも不可欠ではなく、特定の装置(機種,バージョン等)についてのみ不具合処置支援情報が収集されるようにしてもよい。
 さらに、不具合処置支援情報の報知は、画面への表示と共に、あるいは表示に代えて音声により報知されるようにすることも可能である。
In the above-described embodiment, the troubleshooting support information is collected through the cooperation of the electronic circuit manufacturing support device 40 and the call center database 58. However, the serviceman is obliged to report the defect resolution. In addition, it is possible to manually store the data in the database 58 based on the report. The database is provided in one factory or one user, and trouble handling support is provided within the range of one factory or one user. It is also possible to collect information.
In addition, it is not indispensable to collect failure treatment support information regarding a plurality of types of component devices constituting one electronic circuit manufacturing system, and failure treatment support information is available only for a specific device (model, version, etc.). It may be collected.
Furthermore, the notification of the failure treatment support information can be notified by voice together with the display on the screen or in place of the display.
