Mark each numbered column P (pass), N (needs attention) or — (not applicable). Anything marked N belongs in the notes column with what was done about it.
A blank form to fill in by hand. It records what you observed. It does not state how often you are required to do this, and it does not decide whether a reading or a finding is acceptable — those come from your own policy, your equipment manufacturer, and the authority having jurisdiction.
What the interactive version adds
Keeps your device inventory between tests, files the record against your facility, and turns a failed device into a tracked corrective action.

What is on this sheet
Before the first row the sheet asks for facility, building / area, month & year, and completed by — the four or five facts that make a loose page findable a year later, when the question is not what the reading was but which building and which month it came from.
The grid is 20 rows, each one device, walked against every question. What it asks for that no other form here asks for is device id; the rest — date, location, by, and notes / action taken — is the same on every blank form in this catalog, because those are the columns that make a row attributable.
The numbered columns are not headings but a legend: 5 questions asked of every device, printed once above the grid and numbered to match, which is the only way 5 of them fit across a page. They are sounds when tested, power / status indicator normal, in place, mounted correctly, undamaged, unobstructed — nothing painted over, covered or stored against it, and within the manufacturer's replacement age.
The type legend prints smoke alarm (single/multi-station), smoke detector (system), heat detector, carbon monoxide alarm, combination smoke/co, manual pull station, notification appliance, and other, so a row can say what kind of thing it is without a second column for it.
A completed sheet is a record of a test: every device, where it is, and what happened when you tested it. It is a record of what somebody observed and nothing more. It does not say how often you are required to do this, and it does not decide whether a reading or a finding is acceptable — those come from your own policy, your equipment manufacturer, and the authority having jurisdiction.
