Zhang (IHEP), report on behalf of the Insight-HXMT team: At 2019-02-15T18:31:22.000 (T0), the Insight-HXMT/HE detected GRB 190215A(trigger ID: HEB190215771) in a routine search of the data, which was also triggered by Fermi/GBM (B. Mailyan et al., GCN 23898). The Insight-HXMT/HE light curve mainly consists of two pulses with a duration (T90) of 14.80 s measured from T0+1.22 s. The 1-ms peak rate, measured from T0+6.155 s, is 3193.6 cnts/sec. The total counts from this burst is 28093.7 counts. URL_LC: http://www.hxmt.org/images/GRB/HEB190215771_lc.jpg All measurements above are made with the CsI detectors operating in the regular mode with the energy range of about 80-800 keV (record energy). Only gamma-rays with energy greater than about 200 keV can penetrate the spacecraft and leave signals in the CsI detectors installed inside of the telescope. Insight-HXMT is the first Chinese space X-ray telescope, which was fundedjointly by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
