We present the temporal variation of the stellar parameters of the erupting star in HD 5980. We derive the effective temperature and radius from the observed changes of the visual magnitude. Our analysis is based on the assumption that the luminosity of the erupting star remained constant and that the brightness of the second star did not vary.
