$ @FAX$DIR:FAX_SYLOGIN
Enter the @FAX$DIR:FAX_SYSTARTUP command in into your system startup command file and the
@FAX$DIR:FAX_SYLOGIN into your system-wide login file, which will cause the CompuFax software to
be started each time the system is rebooted. Allow a few minutes for CompuFax to establish communications
with the fax modem and bring the device on-line. Verify that the device is ready:

$ FAX SHOW DEVICE

Once communication has been established and the device is on-line the installation is complete.
