The light curves of GRB 240627B were also successfully downloaded through the VHF system with low latency owing to an in-flight trigger just about 50 s after this burst. Although the calibration is ongoing, the preliminary GRM light curves are well consistent with the Fermi/GBM and GECAM-C observations. The automatic in-flight trigger strategy of GRM is under commissioning. The GRB 240627B light curves can be found here: http://www.bursthub.cn//admin/static/svgrb240627B.png The GRB 240629A light curves can be found here: http://www.bursthub.cn//admin/static/svgrb240629A.png The GRB 240702A light curves can be found here: http://www.bursthub.cn//admin/static/svgrb240702A.png We note that these are the first three GRBs detected by SVOM. More GRBs are expected to be detected by SVOM as other instruments are gradually turned on according to the operation plans. The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.
