George has a given a 1.0 solution, if you can use XSLT 2.0 then you
could use the distinct-values() function:

<xsl:for-each
select="EventDevicesArchive/EventDevice/Device[not(text()=../preceding-siblin
g::EventDevice/Device/text())]">

can become:

<xsl:for-each
select="distinct-values(EventDevicesArchive/EventDevice/Device)">
