  In this paper we present an overview of current status of the Optical Replica synthesizer at DESY. The method is based on producing an "optical copy" of the electron bunch with its subsequent analysis with optical techniques*. To this end, a near-IR laser beam is superimposed on the electron beam in the first undulator of an optical klystron. In the following dispersive section the laser-induced energy modulation is transformed into a density modulation . The modulated electron bunch then produces a strong optical pulse in the second undulator. Analysis of this near-IR pulse (the optical copy) then provides information about the profile, the slice emittance and the slice energy spread of the electron bunch. We discuss the implementation of such a measurement set-up at the FLASH facility at DESY and investigate the influence of various parameters on the performance of the device. Topics we address include the dispersive chicane, as well as the requirements for the seed laser pulses and the detection and analysis of the near-IR pulse.
