Note 
Optional components 
The components: rubber
-metal anti-
vibration mount, mounting bracket, tensioning device / mounting bracket, deflector pulley 
and door clutch holder are optional and can
 be obtained from Siemens. Additional information can be found on the internet 
http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/61054609/133200). 
The mechanical installation of the geared motor is performed in the following steps: 
1.  Install the geared motor 
④ onto the motor mount ② (rubber-metal anti-vibration mount). Then, if necessary, mount the 
geared motor on the mounting bracket 
①. 
2.  Install the deflector pulley 
⑦, if necessary with a mounting bracket ⑧. Ensure that the drive pinion ③ and deflector 
pulley ⑦ are aligned. They should be aligned as precisely as possible with one another (flush). 
3.  Feed the toothed belt 
⑤ over the deflector pulley ⑦ and the drive pinion ③, and lay both open ends of the toothed belt 
in the door clutch holder 
⑥. Screw the door clutch holder together. 
4.  Tension the toothed belt with the aid of the tensioning device ⑧. The correct tension has been reached when the 
midpoint of the toothed belt can be pushed in by approximately 3 cm for every meter of distance between the drive pinion 
and the deflector pulley. 
 
Insert the motor connector into the corresponding controller slots: 
●  Slot X4201 for the motor windings and X7000 for the sensor signals (for ATE250S) 
If the geared motor is connected to the control unit, it is detected automatically during the commissioning of the door control.
