The Japanese solar maximum satellite HINOTORI was launched on 21 February 1981, and so far 720 Solar flares were detected including many large flares; the largest observed was a X12 class flare occurred on June 6, 1982. Unfortunately, the data recorder malfunctioned in June, 1982, since then the real time basis observation has been possible to continue. The general introductory explanation and some important results were already published in some proceedings (1, 2, 3 ), therefore we would like to focus on presenting some new results of the Soft X-ray spectra obtained by the spectrometers rather than on talking a review.
