report on behalf of the FRAM-Auger, TAROT-Calern (TCA), TAROT-Chili
(TCH) and GRANDMA collaborations.
We performed tiled observations of the LIGO/Virgo S191129u event with the
FRAM-Auger, TAROT-Calern (TCA) and TAROT-Chili (TCH)
telescopes, operating in the R-band for FRAM and Clear for TAROT, located
respectively at Pierre Auger Observatory (Malargue, Argentina),
the Cote d'Azur Observatory and La Silla ESO (LaS/ESO).
The following table shows for each telescope: the delay in minutes
from the trigger, which filter is used, the field of view of the
telescope in degrees and the typical magnitude in R (AB mag) for a
given exposure in seconds.
+-------------+---------+----------+-----------+------------+
| Telescope | Delay | Filter | f.o.v. | Limiting |
| | [min] | | [deg] | Mag. |
|-------------+---------+----------+-----------+------------|
| FRAM-Auger | 677 | R | 1.0 x 1.0 | 17.0 (60s) |
| TCA | 633 | Clear | 1.9 x 1.9 | 18.0 (60s) |
| TCH | 640 | Clear | 1.9 x 1.9 | 18.0 (60s) |

TStart and TEnd refer respectively to the time of the first and last
exposure for a given tile. Observations are not necessarily continuous
in this interval.
The Probability refers to the 2D spatial probability of the GW skymap
enclosed in a given tile.
These observations cover about 24% of the cumulative probability of
the BAYESTAR skymap available on 2019-11-29 13:42:00 (UTC).
The coverage map is available at:

No significant transient candidates were found during our low latency
analysis [2,3].
GRANDMA (Global Rapid Advanced Network Devoted to the Multi-messenger
Addicts) is a network of robotic telescopes connected all over the
world with both photometry and spectrometry capabilities for Time-
domain Astronomy [2](https://grandma.lal.in2p3.fr/).
Details on the different telescopes are available on the GRANDMA web
pages.
