The long GRB 180221B (Konus-Wind trigger time on 12:30:00.79) triggered
the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 12:29:59.616 UTC on
21 February 2018. The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure which starts at T0,
peaks at T0+16 sec and ends at T0+78 sec. The T90 and the T50 durations
measured by the SGM data are 66.6 +- 6.8 sec and 21.1 +- 6.3 sec
(40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground processed light curve is available at

Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
