The long GRB 230608A (INTEGRAL SPI ACS Trigger #10282;
AGILE detection: Longo et al., GCN Circ 33946; AstroSat CZTI
detection: Navaneeth et al., GCN Circ 33947) triggered the 
CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM)  at 18:34:33.392 UTC 
on 8 June 2023
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1370284460/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by only the SGM detector.

The burst light curve shows a single pulse that starts
at T+2.5 sec, peaks at T+3.3 sec, and ends at T+7.0 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 
3.9 +/- 0.4 sec and 1.6 +/- 0.4 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground-processed light curve is available at

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