Abstract
Various embodiments can permit electrode configurations that are used in implantable devices to be automatically changed. In some embodiments, configurations that are used to ascertain capture (ventricular and/or atrial) can be automatically changed by a stimulation device and then automatically configured for use. Various parameters associated with the electrical configurations can be automatically calibrated so that a stimulation device's automatic capture feature can continue to function notwithstanding the fact that an electrode configuration change has taken place.
