The cargo fire sensor produced a voltage which sent a message to the EICAS telling the crew that there was a cargo fire.

Golf clap at oval... Touché, sir, touché.

Was there smoke involved or just a faulty sensor that produced a voltage that sent a message to the EICAS telling the crew there was a cargo fire?
