(Top) Light curve of the NICER pointing with the burst on 2017 July 3. Initially, the plotted resolution is 0.5 s, and 500 logarithmically spaced bins are employed after 150 s. (Bottom) Hardness ratio of count rate with E > 2.5 keV to E < 2.5 keV. The dotted lines indicate mean values over the first 100 s.
