Using the data set from T-239 to T+843 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 240217***A*** (trigger #1215859)
(NAME, et al., GCN Circ. xxxx).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 244.763, -15.515 deg which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  16h 19m 03.1s 
   Dec(J2000) = -15d 30' 52.9" 
with an uncertainty of 1.4 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 75%.
 
[Description about the mask-weighted light curve]
T90 (15-350 keV) is 651.74 +- 41.90 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from TTBD to TTBD sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
6.58 +- 0.27.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 8.0 +- 0.6 x 10^-06 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-49.32 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.8 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
