Podesta Observatorio Astronomico Felix Aguilar (OAFA) MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) located in SAAO was pointed to the FERMI GBM GRB160910.72 15 sec after notice time and 65 sec after trigger time at 2016-09-10 17:20:45 UT. On our first (20s exposure started 75 sec after GBM trigger) set we do not found optical transient within FERMI error-box (ra=14 54 00 dec=+39 23 00 r=3.41, trigger 495220783 / 160910722 (Veres and C.Meegan, GCN 19901)) because very low altitude on horizont ~3 degrees (one tube was under the roof). Fortunatelly, we saw OT by one of two MASTER Very Wide Field Cameras (5 sec expositon, 0.25 sec readout) . On MASTER-SAAO VWF Camera we see OT at 3 sigma confidence level with magnitude 11.6 +- 0.5 mag on a co-added images with total exposure 95 seconds (19 x 5 sec) starting at 17:20:45 i.e. 65 sec after trigger time. Mean time is 113 sec after trigger. On our second MASTER-SAAO (30s exposure) set started at 2016-09-10 17:22:26 (167 sec after trigger time) we found OT within FERMI error-box with unfileterd magnitide m = 11.6+-0.1 . The second exposition was making after receiving new Fermi GBM coordinates. Ra, Dec = 14h 45m 46.03s +39d 04m 00.52s err = +-0.5 arcsec (cf. A. D'A. et al., GCN 19904; A. de Ugarte Postigo et al., 19907; Malesani et al., GCN 19908 ) MASTER-IAC robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) located in IAC was starting survey on the FERMI GBM GRB160910.72 error-box (ra=14 46 14 dec=+39 25 10 r=1.0) 11142 sec after notice time and 11239 sec after trigger time at 2016-09-10 20:26:58 UT. The 5-sigma upper limit on our first (60s exposure) set is about 18.3 mag . The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.4+-0.4 . The light curve is available at http://master.sai.msu.ru/static/GRB160910A.png The MASTER-SAAO power law index alpha = 1.30+-0.07 ( I ~ t^-alpha) in agreement with MASTER-IAC and some contradiction with late point (Malesani et al., GCN 19908 ) The MASTER-SAAO and NOT combined power law index alpha = 1.17+-0.02 . All MASTER observations was done before LAT alert. The message may be cited.
