Description

As of 12/16/2025 the instruments are not completely ready for this. However, we're planning to start running a different "two-leg" default turnarounds for SATp1 and SATp2 during CMB scans only. For planet scans we'll want to use the standard turnaround profile.

I think, depending on how this gets implemented, this will also require configuration updates in with the reference plans or the scheduler-configs. So also submit issues there as desired.

Research direction

Start by locating the scheduler's current turnaround handling and the reference plans or scheduler-configs mentioned in the issue. Check how SATp1 and SATp2 are selected for CMB versus planet scans, then confirm the instrument readiness assumptions. Done means the planned two-leg profile is used only for the specified CMB scans while planet scans retain the standard profile, with configuration updates made where required.
