The X-ray/Be transient system A 0535+26/HDE 245770 was monitored in X-ray, UV, and optical wavelengths to study the lighting of X-ray outbursts. The X-ray observations were carried out with ASTRON satellite on April 19, 1985 and March 17, 1986, dates of expected X-ray outbursts as predicted by the 111 day orbital periodicity. The measured fluxes are 6.5 mCrab and less than 5 mCrab in April 1985 and March 1986, respectively. The IUE observations were performed on January 29, and on March 13 and 15, 1986, predicted periods of quiescence and a bit earlier than an outburst, respectively. Optical spectroscopic observations were performed too. The absence of two X-ray expected outbursts implies either an inaccuracy of 111 day period or a temporary turning-off of the source.
