Using the data set from T-239 to T+890 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 160518***A*** (trigger #686761)
(NAME, et al., GCN Circ. xxxx).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 293.728, 21.891 deg which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  19h 34m 54.6s 
   Dec(J2000) = +21d 53' 29.0" 
with an uncertainty of 1.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 98%.
 
[Description about the mask-weighted light curve]
T90 (15-350 keV) is 0.13 +- 0.00 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.07 to T+0.10 sec fit by a simple
power-law model shows the power law index of 3.25 +- 0.00 (chi squared 1114.72 for 57 d.o.f.).
The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 2.0 +- 0.0 x 10^-06 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T-0.49 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 47.7 +- 0.0 ph/cm2/sec.
 
A single blackbody fit to the time-averaged spectrum shows the blackbody
temperature of 8.65 +- 0.00 keV (chi squared 130.78 for 57 d.o.f.).
A thermal bremsstrahlung model fit shows the temperature of 25.39 +- 0.00 keV
(chi squared 205.77 for 57 d.o.f.).  A double blackbody fit shows the lower temperature
of 6.10 +0.83 keV and the higher temperature of 10.67 +0.97 keV
(chi squared 57.95 for 55 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
