Using the data set from T-239 to T+882 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 201223A (trigger #1014316)
(Gropp et al., GCN Circ. 29158).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 132.735, 71.176 deg which is
   RA(J2000)  =  08h 50m 56.3s
   Dec(J2000) = +71d 10' 34.9"
with an uncertainty of 1.4 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 53%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that
starts at ~T-25 s and ends at ~T+8 s. The main peak occurs at ~T0.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 29.0 +- 6.7 sec (estimated error including
systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T-25.18 to T+7.82 sec is best fit
by a simple power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged
spectrum is 1.35 +- 0.13.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is
1.3 +- 0.1 x 10^-06 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from
T-0.18 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 1.5 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.  All the
quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
