1240edo is consistent in the 7-odd-limit, though the error on harmonic 3 is quite large. It is a strong tuning for 5-limit soviet ferris wheel, ([-171 20 60), and a good tuning for dodifo, ([-67 -9 35).

Beyond the 7-odd-limit, there is a number of mappings to be considered. In the 2.7.23.27.29 subgroup, it is a flat system, and in 2.9.11.13.15, it is a sharp system. In the 2.5.11.13.29, it tunes the genojacobin temperament.
