Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from recent telemetry downlinks,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 120802A (trigger #529486)
(Holland, et al., GCN Circ. 13555
Not found
 
 
).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 44.833, 13.762 deg, which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  02h 59m 20.0s 
   Dec(J2000) = +13d 45' 43.1" 
with an uncertainty of 1.1 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 56%.
 
The mask-weighted light curve shows a small precursor peak from ~T-40 to ~T-33 sec,
then a fast rise at ~T-2 sec, peaking at ~T+2 sec and decaying exponentially
with a second peak peaking at ~T+8 sec and ending at ~T+45 sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 50 +- 31 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from T-35.68 to T+28.02 sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 1.21 +- 0.47, 
and Epeak of 57.2 +- 19.4 keV (chi squared 52.25 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.9 +- 0.3 x 10^-6 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+7.94 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
3.0 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 1.84 +- 0.10 (chi squared 58.45 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors
are at the 90% confidence level.
