  FERMI@Elettra is a linac-driven free-electron laser currently under commissioning at Sincrotrone Trieste, Italy. In order to protect the facility's permanent undulator magnets from radiation-induced demagnetization,beam losses and radiation doses are monitored closely by an active machine protection system. The talk focuses on the design and performance of its main diagnostic subsystems: Beam loss position monitors based on the detection of Cherenkov light in quartz fibers with multi-pixel photon counters, conventional ionization chambers with a new frontend electronics package, and solid-state RadFET dosimeters providing an online measurement of the absorbed dose in the undulator magnets.
