Is mission control making any adjustments to the rover as it lands?

Or is it all pre-programmed?

Wouldn't the distance and time delay with the speed of light make it impossible for mission control to make any meaningful changes to it as it lands?

Follow-up, they just said the parachute deployed, with the time delay for info to come back to earth, does that mean it deployed in reality 14min ago?
