DEVIreg™ 850 IV
Installation instruction4
When more than 1 area is controlled by the DEVIreg™ 850 system, it is also possible to
prioritize the areas. Prioritizing makes it possible to operate 2 areas, even if the needed
power for 2 areas is not present.
The DEVIreg™ 850 is fully automatic and operated digitally by means of the intelligent
sensors located in the heated terrain. Each sensor measures both temperature and mois-
ture, and the system turns the heating elements on and o based on these readings. By
combining moisture and temperature readings, the system is able to save around 75%
energy compared to systems which only measure temperature readings. The digital sen-
sors used for the DEVIreg™ 850 also provide the most exact readings when compared
with corresponding analogue systems. The result is optimum functionality and low en-
ergy consumption.
For more information about the ice and snow melting function of the DEVIreg™ 850,
please refer to: Appendix B:“How it works”.
A typical installation consists of:
• Controller unit (only one)
This is the device which, based on the measurements
from the sensors, decides when to heat the connected
area(s).
• Power supply (one or more)
The power supply delivers power to the controller unit
and the connected sensors.
• Ground sensor (one or more)
At least 1 ground sensor is needed for each ground area,
but to get the best performance of a system, 2 or more
sensors are recommended.
For more information please refer to the sensor manual.
• Roof sensor (one or more)
At least 1 roof sensor is needed for each roof area, but
for complex roof constructions, 2 or more sensors are
recommended.
For more information please refer to the sensor manual.

1�3 Possible alarms during operation
Clogged drain
Description: When clogged drain warning has been enabled, an alarm is raised
when the system constantly has been detecting moisture for 14
days.
If the DEVIreg™ 850 controls more than 1 system, and prioritiz-
ing has been enabled, the time before clogged drain warning-
for the down-prioritized system, can be much longer. The time
is only updated, when the system actually is allowed to heat
the area (e.g. the up-prioritized system is not heating)
Solution: - Check gutter and down pipes for any obstacles preventing the
melting water to ow away.
- Check if sensors are covered with dirt.
Missing sensor
Description: When the connection to a sensor is lost, the DEVIreg™ 850 alarms
the user. At the same time the DEVIreg™ 850 automatically switch-
es the system to“Constant O”mode, and user interaction with the
DEVIreg™ 850 is needed.
Solution: - Acknowledge error and go to“Installer Site”in the menu system
and select “Change System”.
- Contact your local installer to get a replacement.
New sensor added
Description: When a new sensor is added, the DEVIreg™ 850 alarms the user and
at the same time automatically switches to“Constant O”mode.
User interaction is needed in order to correct the error.
Solution: Acknowledge error and go to“Installer Site”in the menu system
and select “Change System”.
Sensor malfunction
Description: When something is wrong with the readings from connected sen-
sors to the DEVIreg™ 850, an alarm is raised.
Not all error prone sensors can be discovered using this fea-
ture!
Solution: - Acknowledge error and go to“Installer Site”in the menu system
and select “Change System”.
- Contact your local service centre to get a replacement.

1�4 Changing parameters and performance of systems
Several parameters for each system can be changed during and after the installation. For
a complete understanding of how these parameters aect the performance of the roof
and ground system, please refer to Appendix B:“How it works”.
Only change the DEVIreg™ 850 parameters if you are aware of the eects of your
actions. Reference: Appendix A: Installer menu
Roof system
Melting temperature
Changing the melting temperature will aect when the system is activated in case of
moisture and low temperatures.
The factory setting is 1.5 °C. This means that the heating system will be activated if the
temperature falls below 1.5 °C and moisture is detected.
Moisture level
The“moisture level”decides when the system detects moist.
The factory setting is 50 (on a scale from 5 to 95). The lower the setting, the more sensi-
tive the system is to moisture.
Post-heat
Once the sensor has detected that the roof/gutter is dry and free of ice and snow the
system will keep heating for another hour (default). If you wish to increase/decrease this
time see Appendix A: Installer menu.
The factory setting is 1 hour (on a scale from 0 to 9 hours)
Priority
When using the DEVIreg™ 850 as a dual or combi system, it is possible to prioritize the
systems. When the priority of 2 systems is equal, both systems can heat at the same time.
If the priority of the 2 systems diers, and both systems want to heat, only the system
with the highest priority is allowed to heat.
The factory setting is 1 (highest priority) for all systems.
Clogged drain
It is possible to enable and disable the “Clogged drain warning”.
The factory setting is “Warning On”.
System and sensor name
It is possible to change the names of the system and connected sensors
(see AppendixA: Installer menu).

DEVIreg™ 850 IV
9Installation instruction
Ground system
Melting temperature
Changing the melting temperature will aect when the system is activated in case of
moisture and low temperatures.
The factory setting is 4 °C.
This means that the heating system will be activated if the temperature falls below 4 °C
and moisture is detected.
Standby temperature (maintained ground temperature)
The higher the standby temperature the faster the system will be able to melt ice and
snow. On the other hand the higher the standby temperature the higher the running
costs. So, determining the standby temperature is a trade-o between fast melting or
low running costs.
The factory setting is –3 °C.
Moisture level
The“moisture level”decides when the system detects moist.
The factory setting is 50 (on a scale from 5 to 95).
The lower the setting, the more sensitive the system is to moisture.
Post-heat
Once the sensor has detected that the roof/gutter is dry and free of ice and snow the
system will keep heating for another hour (default). If you wish to increase/decrease this
time see Appendix A: Installer menu.
The factory setting is 1 hour (on a scale from 0 to 9 hours)
Priority
When using the DEVIreg™ 850 as a dual or combi system, it is possible to prioritize the
systems. When the priority of 2 systems is equal, both systems can heat at the same time.
If the priority of the 2 systems diers, and both systems want to heat, only the system
with the highest priority is allowed to heat.
The factory setting is 1 (highest priority) for all systems.
Clogged drain
It is possible to enable and disable the “Clogged drain warning”.
The factory setting is “Warning On”.
System and sensor name
It is possible to change the names of the system and connected sensors.
