A control unit of a substrate processing apparatus has a storage medium that stores operation commands as a single macro. The operation commands include an operation command for shutdown of the substrate processing apparatus by which the substrate processing apparatus is automatically transferred from a normally-operating condition to a condition suitable for man power maintenance, and an operation command for startup of the substrate processing apparatus by which the substrate processing apparatus is automatically transferred to a condition suitable for normal operation after completion of the man power maintenance. The control unit makes a display unit display both the operation commands for shutdown and startup together on a single ejection screen of the display unit, and allows editing of the macro on the single edit screen by using the input unit.
