MASTER-IAC robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in Teide observatory was pointed to the Fermi LAT
GRB160816A 924 sec after notice time at 2016-08-16 22:57:12 UT
(NOTICE_DATE:Tue 16 Aug 16 22:42:36 UT) and 19665 sec after the trigger
time(the delay in 15min was from the inspection of previous FermiGBM
alert and late notice time).
On our first 180s exposures we haven`t found optical transient within
LAT error-box (RA, Dec = 322.45, 37.16 (J2000) r=0.13).
There is a disc galaxy (unknown in NED) inside LAT error-box at the
position 21h 29m 23.16s +37d 05m 54.9s - possible host galaxy for GRB.
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 19.7 mag
