Abstract
A pacemaker having a motion sensor is configured to select an atrial event sensing vector of a multi-axis motion sensor for sensing atrial systolic events from a motion signal produced by the motion sensor. In some examples, the pacemaker determines a maximum amplitude during a sensing window for each one of multiple vector signals produced by the multi-axis motion sensor. The pacemaker may select the atrial event sensing vector signal from among the vector signals based on the determined maximum amplitudes.
