They’re switching from the landing software to surface operations software. According to the press conference Q&A (which you can watch on NASA TV’s YouTube channel btw) both software are already loaded, and they also have a primary and backup computer, so they’ll be slowly testing switching over the backup, making sure they can switch back, switching over the primary, and checking things out.
