The long-duration GRB 261011A
(SVOM detection: Huang et al., GCN 45895;
Swift detection: Cenko et al., GCN 45896)
was detected by Konus-Wind (KW) in the waiting mode
at about T0 = T0 (SVOM) = 49747 s UT (13:49:07).

A Bayesian block analysis of the KW  waiting mode data
in the 20-400 keV band reveals a ~20 sigma count rate
increase in the interval from T0+1.7 s to T0+66.468 s.

The Konus-Wind light curve of this GRB is available at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/GRBs/GRB261011A/

The total burst fluence is 1.30(-0.21,+0.62)x10^-5 erg/cm^2,
and the 2.944 s peak energy flux, measured from T0+10.532 s,
is 4.63(-4.27,+4.74)x10^-7 erg/cm^2/s.
(both in the 20 keV - 10 MeV energy range).

The time-integrated spectrum of the burst,
measured from T0+1.7 s to T0+66.468 s,
can be described by a power law with exponential cutoff (CPL) model
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep)
with alpha = -1.8(-0.1,+0.2) and Ep = 198(-67,+869) keV.

All the quoted errors are estimated at the 68% confidence level.
All the presented results are preliminary.
