We observed from 2026-02-11 12:43 to 13:02 UTC ( 47.0 to 47.4 hours after the trigger) and obtained 960 seconds of simultaneous exposure in the r and z filters.\n\nThe data were reduced, coadded, calibrated and analyzed with the COLIBRÍ ASU pipeline . The photometry was calibrated using nearby stars from the PanSTARRS DR1 catalog, is in the AB system, and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.\n\nIn the stacked image, we do not detect any new source at the FXT source position (Zhang et al., GCN Circ. 43693) down to the following 5-sigma limit:\n\nr > 20.4,\nz > 18.8.\n\nThese limits are compatible with those of LCO (Corcoran et al. GCN Circ. 43698)\n\nWe thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir and the COLIBRÍ and DDRAGO engineering teams.\n\nCOLIBRÍ is an astronomical observatory developed and operated jointly by France (AMU, CNES and CNRS) and Mexico (UNAM and SECIHTI). It is located at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir, Baja California, Mexico."
