MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 230201A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 33242) errorbox  30102 sec after notice time and 30143 sec after trigger time at 2023-02-01 14:01:57 UT, with upper limit up to  16.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 69 deg. The sun  altitude  is -51.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -15 deg., longitude l = 104 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
