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 GRB210106.22 (trigger No 631602681,22h 33m 48.00s , +09d 00m 00.0s, R=21.01) errorbox  49110 sec after notice time and 49171 sec after trigger time at 2021-01-06 18:50:47 UT, with upper limit up to  19.1 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun  altitude  is -12.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -41 deg., longitude l = 76 deg.
