A method and apparatus for determining the origin of a cardiac signal in the heart of a patient. A cardiac stimulator includes a multiple-chamber electrode arrangement having at least two electrodes positioned to sense and/or pace different chambers of the heart. The electrodes switch from a bipolar configuration to a unipolar configuration in order to verify the point of origin for the cardiac signal and in order to determine whether propagation of the cardiac signal occurs. The apparatus allows simultaneous and timed pacing of left and right chambers.
