Abstract: We present an alternate definition of the mod {�f Z} component of the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer $eta$ invariant associated to (not necessary unitary) flat vector bundles, which identifies explicitly its real and imaginary parts. This is done by combining a deformation of flat connections introduced in a previous paper with the analytic continuation procedure appearing in the original article of Atiyah, Patodi and Singer.
