In response to the detection of the likely flaring star 1RXS J060224.9-163451 by EP/WXT, an automatic trigger initiated follow-up observations using the 0.8-m telescope at Xinglong Observatory, Hebei, China. We obtained one 300-second exposure in both the g-band and r-band filters, with a median time of 2025-01-06T13:07:42, i.e., 16.2 hr after the EP trigger (ID 01709129925). For this target, we measured magnitudes of g ~ 12.82 mag and r ~ 11.48 mag, calibrated with the Pan-STARRS g-band and r-band field.
