The RXTE PCA and HEXTE observed the new transient XTE J1701-462 (Remillard et al, ATEL #696) first on 19 Jan 2006 at 18:00 UT for 3800 seconds. Observations on 20 Jan (Markwardt & Swank, ATEL #700) included several pointed observations. The fluxes on 19 Jan were 1.7e-8 and 2.8e-9 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 in the 2-10 keV and 10-40 keV bands respectively. On 20 Jan they rose as high as 1.9e-8 and 3.3e-9, respectively, decreased to a third of that and started to recover.
