Claim 6:
7. The medical device system of claim 6, further comprising:
the pulse generator configured to generate pacing pulses delivered via the anode and the cathode at each of a plurality of pacing pulse outputs;
wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
determine the at least one feature from the first cardiac electrical signal by:
determining, from the bipolar signal, a first QRS morphology corresponding to a first pacing pulse output of the plurality of pacing pulse outputs;
determining, from the bipolar signal, a second QRS morphology corresponding to a second pacing pulse output of the plurality of pacing pulse outputs, wherein the second pacing pulse output is greater than the first pacing pulse output and the second QRS morphology is different than the first QRS morphology; and
detecting in the bipolar signal a change between the first QRS morphology and the second QRS morphology; and

determine that the at least one feature meets the first bundle branch capture criteria in response to detecting the change in the bipolar signal between the first QRS morphology and the second QRS morphology.
