We have observed the HETE-2 error circle of
GRB/XRF040912(HETE trigger 3557)with the  unfiltered CCD camera
on the 30-cm telescope at University of Miyazaki.
Observed field of view is 43 arcmin centerd on (23h 57m 04s -00d 59' 12" ).
After co-adding a set of 8 images of 30 sec exposures, we have compared
our images with the USNO A2.0 catalog.
Preliminary analysis shows there is no new source brighter than
16.0mag. in our observed field at Sep 13, 12:09:30 UT.
