The tuning of the POTE [[generator]] corresponding to the mapping ''V'' is therefore 0.31696 octaves, or 380.352 cents. Naturally, this only gives the single POTE generator in the rank-2 case, but the POTE tuning can still be found in this way for mappings defining higher-rank temperaments. The method can be generalized to subgroup temperaments, treating the formal prime represented by the first column as the [[equave]].
