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 GRB 210317A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 29659) errorbox  30510 sec after notice time and 30572 sec after trigger time at 2021-03-17 17:38:01 UT, with upper limit up to  18.2 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 46 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -7 deg., longitude l = 288 deg.
