MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the EP EP240913a ( EP Team et al., GCN 37492) errorbox  3325 sec after notice time and 2 days 75829 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-16 08:43:22 UT, with upper limit up to  18.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun  altitude  is -23.9 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -46 deg., longitude l = 129 deg.
