An example of a system may include an arrangement of electrodes configured to be operationally positioned for use in modulating targeted neural tissue, a neural modulator, a communication module, and a controller. The neural modulator may be configured to use at least some electrodes within the arrangement of electrodes to generate a modulation field. The communication module may be configured to receive user-provided selections. The controller may be configured to use the communication module to receive a user-provided selection of a desired electrode list where the electrode list identifies electrodes within the arrangement of electrodes that are available for use in modulating the targeted neural tissue, control the neural stimulation modulator to generate the modulation field, and use the electrodes identified in the electrode list to modulate the targeted neural tissue.
