Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 150213B (trigger #631051)
(Pagani, et al., GCN Circ. 17464

 ).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 253.448, 34.165 deg, which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  16h 53m 47.4s 
   Dec(J2000) = +34d 09' 54.5" 
with an uncertainty of 1.8 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 13%.
 
The mask-weighted light curve shows a FRED peak with a few little peaks
starting at ~T+0, peaking at ~T+18, and returning to baseline at ~T+300 sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 181 +- 60 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from T+2.09 to T+249.78 sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 0.80 +- 0.79, 
and Epeak of 54.8 +- 20.6 keV (chi squared 57.4 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 3.0 +- 0.4 x 10^-6 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+18.08 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
1.1 +- 0.4 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 1.77 +- 0.15 (chi squared 63.4 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors
are at the 90% confidence level.
