The FERMI@elettra project foresees a laser heater at low energy (~ 100 MeV); this tool has been proposed to cure the microbunching instability that affects the high brightness electron beam. It consists of an undulator located in a small magnetic chicane that allows seeding of the electron beam with an external laser. The particles interact in a short undulator with the laser pulse and then gain an energy modulation on the scale of the optical wavelength. As a result, the laser-electron interaction together with with the R52 transport term leads to an effective beam heating. This article describe the capability of diagnostic dedicated to enlighten the laser heater operation
