Following the discovery of IGR J17177-3656 (Frankowski et al. 2011, ATel #3223) on 2011-03-15, we triggered our Chandra HETGS ToO observation, which was executed from 2011-03-22T06:07:15 to 2011-03-22T12:00:48 UT, for a total exposure time of about 20 ksec. The J2000.0 Chandra position we obtain is RA: 17 17 42.62 DEC: -36 56 04.5 We estimate our position error to be dominated by a 1 sigma systematic error of 0.6" determined by the absolute accuracy with which the Chandra aspect solution is typically known.
