Claim 15:
16. A system for stimulating body tissue, the system comprising:
at least one sensor configured to be affixed to, or inserted in, a body to measure one or more physiological parameters of the body;
a stimulation array;
a user interface; and
a control unit including a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to identify an electrode combination of the stimulation array;
wherein identifying an electrode combination of the stimulation array includes:
selecting a first set of electrode combinations;
stimulating from all electrode combinations of the first set of electrode combinations;
for each stimulation from an electrode combination of the first set of electrode combinations, receiving an input via the user interface, the at least one sensor, or both, and the input relates to whether a requisite stimulation was detected;
relating a corresponding input to each electrode combination of the first set of electrode combinations; and
selecting a second set of electrode combinations, wherein the second set of electrode combinations is a subset of the first set of electrode combinations, and each electrode combination of the second set of electrode combinations corresponds to one input that the requisite stimulation was detected.
