Claim One:
1. An implantable medical device (IMD) comprising: stimulation circuitry adapted to provide at least one neural stimulation energy to at least one neural stimulation electrode; one or more timers, including at least one neural event timer, each timer having an output indicating a timer state and an input for changing the timer state; a device behavior memory including a neural table, wherein the neural table maps a particular device state defined at least in part by a neural event timer to one or more associated device actions that include at least one of a neural stimulation energy delivery, a change in state of at least one neural event timer, and both a neural stimulation energy delivery and a change in state of one or more timers; and a comparison circuit adapted to compare a current state of one or more timers to a device state in the neural table and, if found to match, causing performance of one or more associated device actions.
