The light output of the 324 CsI(Tl) scintillators of INDRA has been measured over large ranges in energy : 1–80 AMeV and in atomic number of incident ions : Z=1–60. An analytical expression for the non-linear total light response as a function of the energy and the identity of the ion is developed. It depends on four parameters. For three of them, connected to CsI(Tl) intrinsic characteristics, fixed values are proposed. Two applications are presented : energy calibration and fragment identification in telescopes using a CsI(Tl) crystal as residual energy detector.
