According to the status page, it says:

Highest Math SAT or ACT equivalent: 620, Highest Verb SAT or ACT equivalent: 620

Thus, brining my SAT (as far as they know, I didn't send my SATs) to a 1240... My actual SAT... 1140. I never sent my SATs because my Reading score was a 520, so I sent my ACTs (25 c, 27m, 27v)

Hopefully, it helps.

Is a 1240 (equivalent a good enough score to get the scholarship?

I guess I didn't make the first board, but how about the next or later boards?
 
Just wanted to point out that there is an ACT -> SAT conversion table here:

http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/act-sat-concordance-tables.pdf

ACT 22 = SAT 515
ACT 23 = SAT 535
ACT 24 = SAT 555
ACT 25 = SAT 575
ACT 26 = SAT 595
ACT 27 = SAT 610
ACT 28 = SAT 630
ACT 29 = SAT 650
ACT 30 = SAT 670
ACT 31 = SAT 690
ACT 32 = SAT 710
ACT 33+ -- who cares the exact number, that's WAY high.

It appears that the NROTC version of conversion gives an ACT 27 a 620 SAT equivalent rather than a 610 (per the link) Perhaps the link I posted above is outdated.

As to your question, 1240 is neither cause for concern or celebration. It's probably right in the middle of the applicant pool. Demonstrated Leadership + Test scores + GPA + Math ability + Athleticism/Fitness + Community Service + Character + Desire to be an Officer all matter, and in differing degrees to each evaluator.
