The quality of the photoinjector high brightness electron beam plays a crucial role for the performance of the seeded FERMI@elettra FEL. Optimization of the gun is possible with an extensive characterization of the 5 MeV electron beam longitudinal and transverse phase space. The photoinjector diagnostics system includes interceptive instrumentation as YAG:Ce screens for transverse position and profile measurements and Faraday cups for the absolute beam charge measurements; a Cherenkov radiator coupled to a streak camera provides an accurate reconstruction of the longitudinal profile and a pepper pot is foreseen for the transverse emittance measurement. Information on beam transverse position and charge is obtained non-disruptively with respectively stripline BPMs and a current transformer. A dispersive beamline is also foreseen for the beam energy, energy spread and longitudinal phase space measurements. The diagnostics system performances and design principles are presented.
