Connecting a laptop to the USB ports
Oscilloscope App
The Scope app lets you connect to an AC voltmeter or an AC ammeter and see an oscilloscope trace of the voltage wave or the current flow. The app only shows the wave shape, the vertical axis values do not relate to any real world values. In other words, if the voltage was halved, the top of the graph would stay in roughly the same place.
An image of the trace can be given a title and saved to disk.
