The long GRB 180704B (INTEGRAL SPI-ACS trigger 8095; Konus-Wind
trigger time on 12:36:28.83) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 12:36:29.282 UTC on 4 July 2018.
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.

The burst light curve shows a weak precursor which starts
at T-39.5 sec and ends at T-28.2 sec followed by the main pulse
which starts at T+0.8 sec, peaks at T+8.6 sec, and ends at T+31.5 sec.
The T90 and the T50 durations measured by the SGM data are
56.5 +- 5.6 sec and 7.6 +- 0.9 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground processed light curve is available at

the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
