The long GRB 240117A (Glowbug gamma-ray detection: Cheung
et al., GCN Circ 35569; AstroSat CZTI detection: Joshi et al., GCN
Circ 35574) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM)
at 19:52:31.44 UTC on 17 January 2024
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1389556167/).
The burst signal was seen by only the SGM detector.

The burst light curve shows a single pulse that starts at T+2.4 sec, 
peaks at T+4.5 sec, and ends at T+8.8 sec. The T90 and T50 durations
measured by the SGM data are 5.7 +/- 0.6 sec and 2.6 +/- 0.3 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.
