SMS:CMS-Wave Spectral Table File

Spectral Table Files (*.txt) contain the parameters for generated wave spectra. The ASCII file is created by SMS when the Spectral Energy dialog is used to create wave spectra. If wave spectra are imported from buoys or another source, this file will not exist. When this file exists, SMS can use the values in the table to populate the table in the Spectral Energy dialog to allow editing the spectra being used.
