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) was pointed to the EP240930a ( EP Team et al., GCN 37648) errorbox 124 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-30 17:19:54 UT, with upper limit up to  17.3 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 79 deg. The sun  altitude  is -9.2 deg. 

MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the EP240930a errorbox 18062 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-30 22:18:52 UT, with upper limit up to  17.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 49 deg. The sun  altitude  is -46.5 deg. 

MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the EP240930a errorbox 22682 sec after trigger time at 2024-09-30 23:35:52 UT, with upper limit up to  18.5 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 76 deg. The sun  altitude  is -13.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -6 deg., longitude l = 86 deg.
