MAJ_STANDBYAfter switch-on of MAJIS, the Boot SW automatically starts, and performs the primary boot from the PROM (Init fugitive BSW mode). After processor modules initialization, the Boot software goes to STANDBY mode. By default, the ASW Image0 (stored in MRAM0 = ASM0) is autonomously loaded after a timeout of 30 seconds.

For each occultation, transit of TBD min Satellite orientation: Inertial pointing of the S/C towards the position of the star to maintain MAJIS slit fixed on it. These occultation observations need to be consolidated in the future (star atlas, signal, Tint, S/C inertial capabilities). Scan mirror can be used to mitigate APE driftMAJIS
MAJ_JUP_STELLAR_OCCMAJIS will acquire several “subcubes” (number depends upon planet's speed over the sky) around the (fixed) star position, at different angular distances between the star and the planet's limb during the ingress/egress. Each sub-cube spans over several lines (around 6, less if S/C capability allows it) to compensate for possible pointing inaccuracies. Bright far moons can be used instead of stars as sources to decrease the repetition integration (and therefore spatial sampling) as the orbital velocity ranges from ~ 5 km/s at apojove to ~ 13 km/s at perijove satellite orientation: LIMB TANGENT (preferred, otherwise VERTICAL), to minimize straylight duration: About 10min 66 sec (max) for each subcube. Time interval between sub-cubes as small as possible for better vertical coverage. Total number of cubes depends upon relative angular speed between star and limb.MAJIS
MAJ_JUP_LIMB_SLEWThe scan the atmosphere of Jupiter over the limb up to 3000k is performed with a specific slew of the S/C Individual lines are largely overlapped to provide actual supersampling (x 10) in the spatial domain and allow sub-pixel resolution by deconvolution.

MAJ_JUP_EVENT_MONITORINGStudy of the evolution of unusual phenomena in Jupiter atmosphere, especially in their zonal evolution MAJIS will acquire several “subcubes” with limited number of lines (about 80) as follows: 1. a series of sub-cubes (from 1 to 4) is acquired with the scan mirror to get the coverage of a limited latitude region at all longitudes on the visible side of the planet. Satellite is re-pointed before acquiring each sub-cube 2. the series at previous point is repeated at fixed time intervals (in the order of 1 h, TBC) to monitor the temporal evolution. Pointing type: YS, Series of OFF-NADIR pointings (‘off-nadir scan mode’) satellite orientation: HORIZONTAL Duration: 160 sec for each sub-cube.

RIM_CALLISTO_FLYBYRIME flyby observations or observations without on-board processing.RIME
SWI_MOON_LIMB_SCAN_PS_V1Investigation of Galilean Moons’ atmospheric composition, temperature, and winds. Flyby: The atmospheric limb is rapidly scanned to achieve 5km vertical resolution. Two CTS spectra are recorded for 1.5 sec over 210 channels (16 bits coding). GCO: The atmospheric limb is scanned up and down rapidly with 10 km altitude steps and with 1.5 sec integration time for two CTS spectra over 130 channels (16 bits coding). Position-switch calibration method.SWI
SWI_MOON_LIMB_STARE_PS_V1Investigation of Galilean Moons’ atmospheric composition, temperature, and winds). Flyby: Two CTS spectra are recorded for 30 sec over 210 channels (16 bits coding). GCO: Two CTS spectra are recorded for 30 sec over 130 channels (16 bits coding) and a different altitude (5, 10, 20, 40, and 50 km) is scanned every orbit. Position-switch calibration method.SWI
SWI_MOON_NADIR_STARE_PS_V1Investigation of Galilean Moons’ surface properties and atmospheric composition, temperature, and winds, and surface properties. This mode can also be used to characterize surface polarization by pointing 45 off-nadir, after rotating the S/C by 90 around its nadir axis. It can also serve for solar occultation experiments to observe a weak molecular line in the atmosphere of Jupiter, a Galilean Moon, or the Europa torus. Flyby: Two CTS spectra are recorded for 30 seconds over 210 channels (16 bits coding). GCO: Two CTS spectra are recorded for 10 seconds over 130 channels (16 bits coding). In both cases, two CCH measurements (20 bits coding) are recorded for 0.1 sec, so that they are separated by maximum 1/2 beam at 1200 GHz. Solar occultation: Two CTS spectra are recorded for 60 seconds over 10000 channels (16 bits coding), and two CCH measurements (20 bits coding) are recorded for 0.1 second. Position-switch calibration method.SWI
SWI_2D_MAP_FS_V1Same as SWI 2D MAP PS, except a frequency-switch calibration mode is used instead of position-switch. It enables spending  100% of the integration time on-source. If the purity of the spectral band is good enough, there is an option to pre-compute ON-OFF for the CTS before downlink.SWI
SWI_WARMUPWarm-up mode.SWI
SWI_STANDBYOnly the instrument DPU will be switched on and be able to accept instrument commands. Only housekeeping telemetry is generated in this mode.SWI
SWI_OFFAll instrument subsystems including the DPU will be switched off. Consequently there will be no housekeeping data and no telemetry. The instrument will be in this mode during launch and cruise phase, except during calibration campaigns (e.g. planet flybys).SWI
MAG_CALROLLCampaign of spacecraft rolls to allow calibration of J-MAG magnetic field measurements. J-MAG will take data in gradiometer mode continuously while the spacecraft rolls about two principal axes, in regions where the Jovian magnetic field is >100 nT. Spacecraft rolls about two principal axes. 3 rolls of 360° about first axis at 0.5 rev/hr, then 3 rolls about the second axis (also at 0.5 rev/hr). The spacecraft rotation axes must always make an angle with the ambient magnetic field between 20° and 160°.JMAG
MAG_BURSTOperation of J-MAG in burst mode (measurement at rate of 128 vectors/s) starting 10 minutes before and ending 10 minutes after a predicted crossing of a thin current sheet in Ganymedes magnetosphere (magnetopause/magnetotail current sheet).JMAG
MAG_CONTINOPmeasure the magnetic field in normal mode (at a rate of 32 vectors/s) continuouslyJMAG
