The short-duration GRB 170222A (Hamburg et al., GCN Circ. 20728;
Kozlova et al., GCN Circ. 20731; INTEGRAL-SPI/ACS trigger #7705)
triggered the CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 05:00:58.48
on 22 February 2017.  The burst signal was only seen by the SGM
instruments.

The light curve of the SGM shows several peaks.  The entire burst
episode starts at T0+0.5 sec, peaks at T0+0.8 sec and ends at T0+2 sec.
The T90 duration measured by the SGM data is 1.2 +- 0.1 sec (40-1000 keV).

The light curve is available at

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