MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB240722.54 (trigger No 743345551,08h 57m 31.92s , +08d 43m 58.8s, R=22.18) errorbox  14504 sec after notice time and 14538 sec after trigger time at 2024-07-22 16:54:44 UT, with upper limit up to  17.9 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 70 deg. The sun  altitude  is -12.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 32 deg., longitude l = 220 deg.
