# How Does the Honeywell SiXSMOKE Work
The Honeywell SiXSMOKE works when the photoelectric beam detects the presence of smoke, it will go into alarm and send the alarm signal to the Lyric controller. During an alarm condition, pressing the detectors test switch will silence the piezoelectric horn for 5 minutes. When programmed in one-go-all-go mode, the detector can only be silenced from the controller. The SiXSMOKE can also can detect heat. The way the SiXSMOKE detects heat is anytime there is a 15 degree increase in temperature within one minute or if their is a fixed temperature of 135 degrees. it will send an alarm signal to the Lyric controller.
