The long bright GRB 190720A (Fermi GBM detection: Hui and Meegan,
GCN Circ. 25131; BALROG localization: Kunzweiler et al., GCN Circ. 25124;
IPN triangulation: Hurley et al., GCN Circ. 25139) triggered the CALET
Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 14:42:10.000 UTC on 20 July 2019.
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
No real-time CGBM GCN notice was distributed about this trigger because
the real-time communication from the ISS was off (loss of signal).

The burst light curve shows a single multi-peaked pulse which starts
at T-0.2 sec, peaks at 2.4 sec and ends at T+14.0 sec. The T90 and T50
durations measured by the SGM data are 5.9 +- 1.0 sec and 2.1 +- 0.2 sec
(40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground processed light curve is available at

Operation Center located at the Waseda University.
