Volumes for Fire and Smoke

I'd like to create a living room type fire (and smoke)
I can do it in Cycles, but can't work out how to do it correctly in Lux.
Could someone please upload a basic node setup or scene for me to learn from?
Many thanks

No, I hadn't seen that.
That's great and very helpful.
Thank you

.........so, if the Emitter is setup for FIRE + SMOKE can I separate these two in the SMOKE DATA node as it only gives option for FIRE, HEAT, COLOR, DENSITY and VELOCITY? or do I need to do something else?
Thanks

Oops, sorry for wasting time
When both fire and smoke is selected the colour is different for each. (I'm fairly sure that's correct)

There is a node tree preset for "Fire and Smoke" available in the material properties, apply it to the domain material to have a starting point.

Thanks. Found it!
I wasn't looking in the right place. Like the Disney Shader I think?
It's not where I normally add materials from. (I don't know the name of all the UI areas so I've attached an image.
