A method includes receiving analog body-surface signal from body-surface electrode, and multiple analog unipolar signals from multiple unipolar electrodes of an invasive probe. A first unipolar electrode is assigned to serve as a common electrical ground and a common timing reference for the analog unipolar signals and the analog body-surface signal. The analog unipolar signals are digitized to produce digital unipolar signals sampled relative to a digital ground. Defined are an analog bipolar signal between the first unipolar electrode and a second unipolar electrode of the probe, and digital bipolar signal formed from the first unipolar electrode and the second unipolar electrode. Ground and timing offsets between the analog bipolar signal and the digital bipolar signal are estimated, while the first unipolar electrode is connected to the digital ground. The ground offset and the timing offset are applied in measuring a third unipolar signal, sensed by a third unipolar electrode.
