fluctuate or alternate

oscillare - also as regards electrical current = to fluctuate or alternate - to continually change levels of power

oscillator

It makes the most sense Peter.
It is used for timing and controlling speed in trains. Some can also monitor voltage. Loads of references in yahoo search for it.

Note link for cs.sunysb.edu which describes the causes of a train accident. Page 2 refers to the failure of the oscillator

nota per info

I would use "oscilloscope"

The Oscilloscope
What is an oscilloscope, what can you do with it, and how does it work? This section answers these fundamental questions.
The oscilloscope is basically a graph-displaying device - it draws a graph of an electrical signal. In most applications the graph shows how signals change over time: the vertical (Y) axis represents voltage and the horizontal (X) axis represents time. The intensity or brightness of the display is sometimes called the Z axis. (See Figure 1.) This simple graph can tell you many things about a signal. Here are a few:


You can determine the time and voltage values of a signal.
You can calculate the frequency of an oscillating signal.
You can see the "moving parts" of a circuit represented by the signal.
You can tell if a malfunctioning component is distorting the signal.
You can find out how much of a signal is direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC).
You can tell how much of the signal is noise and whether the noise is changing with time.
