The long GRB 220711B (Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization: Fermi GBM team,
GCN Circ. 32365; Fermi GBM Detection: Lesage et al., GCN Circ 32369; 
Swift detection: D'Ai et al., GCN Circ 32366, Swift-BAT refined analysis: 
Krimm et al.,  GCN Circ 32374) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 18:16:31.192 UTC on 11 July 2022
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1341598587/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.  No real-time CGBM GCN
notice was distributed about this trigger because the real-time communication
from the ISS was off (loss of signal).

The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure which starts
at T-39.5 sec, peaks at T-2.4 sec, and ends at T+93.7 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 82.7 +/- 3.8 sec
and 15.7 +/- 4.0 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground processed light curve is available at

http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1341598587/

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
