The long-duration GRB 241209D
(Fermi-GBM detection: Fermi GBM team, GCN 38488;
Malacaria & Meegan, GCN 38507;
Swift-BAT detection: Parsotan et al., GCN 38489;
AstroSat CZTI detection: Tembhurnikar et al., GCN 38518)
was detected by Konus-Wind (KW) in the waiting mode.
A Bayesian block analysis of the KW waiting mode data in the 20-300 keV band
reveals a >13 sigma count rate increase in the interval
from T0-2.0 s to T0+42.160 s where T0 = T0(BAT) = 10:59:45.649 UT.
The KW light curve of this burst is available at

Modeling a time-integrated spectrum of the burst
(from T0-2.0 s to T0+42.160 s)
by a power law with exponential cutoff (CPL) model
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep):
yields alpha = -1.16 (-0.37, +4.03) and Ep = 90(-12,+14) keV.
The total burst fluence is 8.79(-0.87,+1.74)x10^-6 erg/cm^2,
and the 2.944 s peak energy flux, measured from T0-2.0 s,
is 5.86(-0.75,+1.25)x10^-7 erg/cm^2.
(both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range).
All the quoted errors are estimated at the 68% confidence level.
All the presented results are preliminary.
