CAGIRE is the near infrared camera of the Colibr\’i robotic telescope, designed for the follow-up of SVOM alerts. It is based on the ALFA 2k x 2k detector, from the LYNRED French Company, operating in “Up the Ramp” mode. An observation consists in a series of short (1-2 minutes) exposures during which the pixels are read out every 1.3 second, while continuously accumulating charges proportionally to the received flux. We discuss here the preprocessing of CAGIRE data and a method that can be used to recover the flux received by each pixel from the slope of the ramp.
