As is well known, the stability of a storage-ring free-electron laser is strongly related to that of the electron beam. With respect to second-generation devices, such as Super ACO and UVSOR, the free-electron laser at ELETTRA is characterized by a noticeably higher gain and, consequently, shows to be much more sensitive to electron-beam instabilities. In order to counteract the impact of such instabilities, both a longitudinal multibunch and a local orbit feedbacks have been implemented for free-electron laser operation. Aim of this paper is to report on the beneficial effect of these feedback systems on the laser performance.

A number of fast local orbit feedback stations are being sequentially installed at ELETTRA to improve the stability of the electron beam at the Insertion Device source points. They rely on Beam Position Monitors equipped with digital detector electronics that provides high precision and readout rate. The local feedback stations will be integrated in a fast global orbit feedback system, which is the goal of the ongoing developments. The performance and the operational experience gained with the local feedback systems are presented together with the planned road map towards the global system.
