Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 210210A (trigger #1031728)
(Laha, et al., GCN Circ. 29444).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 262.764, 14.657 deg which is 
  RA(J2000)  =  17h 31m 03.4s 
  Dec(J2000) = +14d 39' 26.8" 
with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 43%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a double-peaked structure running
approximately from T-1 sec to T+7 sec.  The first pulse peaks close to T+0 sec
and the second pulse peaks at T+4.5 sec.  T90 (15-350 keV) is 6.60 +- 0.59 sec 
(estimated error including systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.75 to T+6.93 sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 1.53 +- 0.58, 
and Epeak of 19.9 +- 13.9 keV (chi squared 44.33 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 9.8 +- 0.8 x 10^-7 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T+4.21 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
7.0 +- 0.5 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 2.46 +- 0.12 (chi squared 53.94 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors
are at the 90% confidence level.
