Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments include wafer and photomask processing equipment. An etch processing system including an endpoint detection system having a light source and a photodetector is described. In an example, the light source emits light toward an alignment region over a substrate support member of an etch chamber, and the photodetector receives a reflection of the light from the alignment region. The reflection is monitored for endpoint and process control. A second light source emits light toward the alignment region, and a camera receives the light to image the alignment region. The image can be used to align the light emitted by the endpoint detection system to a spot location within the alignment region, e.g., within an alignment opening of a substrate mounted on the substrate support member.
