Machine group for producing and filling bottles and method for controlling machine group

The invention relates to a method for controlling a machine group and to a corresponding machine group. The machine group (1) has a blow molding machine (2) for producing bottles (9) and a filler (5) for filling liquid products into the bottles. Thus, the blow molding machine comprises an electronic blow molding machine control (2a) and an even number of circulating blow molding stations (2b), and the filler comprises an electronic filler control (5a) and an even number of circulating filling stations (5b). Since the blow molding machine control unit gives a partition selection (7) that determines whether the bottle is manufactured in all blow molding stations, only in blow molding stations having odd number of partition numbers (8b), or only in blow molding stations having even number of partition numbers (8c), the blow molding machine control unit gives a partition selection (7) that determines whether the bottle is manufactured in all blow molding stations, only in blow molding stations having odd number o
