Abstract: Embodiments herein are directed to an assembly having a plurality of machines, a first programmable logic controller device and a second programmable logic controller device commutatively coupled to the first programmable logic controller device. The second programmable logic controller device includes a human machine interface having a display and displaying a plurality of user inputs. A processing device communicatively coupled to the display and a storage medium. The storage medium includes one or more programming instructions that, when executed, cause the processing device to prompt a user to select a desired program, to input a desired line speed time, and to input a plurality of line control data. The data is converted into a simulated data and transferred to the first programmable logic controller device, which causes at least one machine of the plurality of machinery to move in a predetermined manner based on the simulated data.
