The TABLES button performs the same scanning and identification process as the IMAGING button, but stores the resulting UV Tables (instead of the .cct and .lmv-clean files for the IMAGING button) in a sub-directory, named ./TABLES/by default, controlled by all%tables.
This step is optional, and only needed if the user intends to perform some UV data analysis (like UV plane fitting, line stacking, continuum spectral index determination, direct modeling, etc...).
Extraction of the velocity range specified by ALL%RANGE[1:2]is performed if a CATALOG is provided by the user. Spectral resampling according to ALL%RANGE[3] is performed if and only if ALL%RESAMPLE is set to YES. With no CATALOG, the full spectral coverage is preserved.
Except in CONTINUUM mode, line-free continuum UV tables are also produced.
