The real-time alert data and light curves of SVOM/GRM were downlinked to the ground through the VHF system with low latency. The GRM light curve shows that the T90 of this burst is about 13.2 s +-0.8 s. The GRM light curve can be found here: https://www.bursthub.cn/admin/static/svgrb240812B.png At the time of this burst, SVOM/ECLAIRs was in operation. However the lack of detection suggests that the GRB was outside the SVOM/ECLAIRs FoV. The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS. The SVOM point of contact for this burst is: Jian-Chao Sun (IHEP)(sunjc@ihep.ac.cn)
