Sergienko (Blagoveschensk Educational State University) MASTER-IAC robotic telescope (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L) located in Spain (IAC Teide Observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 201218A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 29081) errorbox 53279 sec after notice time and 53345 sec after trigger time at 2020-12-18 19:03:21 UT, with upper limit up to 16.5 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 64 deg. The sun altitude is -11.5 deg. The galactic latitude b = 7 deg., longitude l = 57 deg. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=1505659 We obtain a following upper limits.
