A neuromodulation system configured for providing sub-threshold neuromodulation therapy to a patient. The neuromodulation system comprises a plurality of electrical terminals configured for being respectively coupled to a plurality of electrodes, modulation output circuitry configured for delivering modulation energy to the electrical terminals, a user interface for receiving input from a user, and control/processing circuitry configured for generating a super-threshold modulation program based on the received user-input, controlling the modulation output circuitry to deliver super-threshold modulation energy in accordance with the super-threshold modulation program, automatically deriving a plurality of different sub-threshold modulation programs from the super-threshold modulation program, and controlling the modulation output circuitry to deliver sub-threshold modulation energy to a patient in accordance with at least one of the sub-threshold modulation programs.
