1. A neurostimulation system for concurrent use with a plurality of electrodes, comprising:

  • a neurostimulator configured for delivering electrical stimulation energy to a tissue region, thereby injecting a charge into the tissue region at each of the electrodes;

    memory storing a hard stop charge limit; and

    an external control device configured for displacing the electrical stimulation energy along the tissue region in one direction, while preventing a value of the charge injection at each of the electrodes from meeting or exceeding the hard stop charge limit.
