The long GRB 240627A (AstroSat CZTI detection: Joshi et al., GCN Circ. 36776;
NuSTAR Detection: Grefenstette et al., GCN Circ. 36778) was detected in the ground
analysis of the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) data around 23:59:01.50 on 
27 June 2024 (referenced to the AstroSat detection: GCN Circ. 36776).
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1403567463/index.html)
The burst signal was seen by only the SGM detector.

The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T-7.5 sec and ends at T+8.0 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 12.1 +/- 0.5 sec
and 4.6 +/- 0.2 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground-processed light curve is available at

https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1403567463/index.html

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