LONG  cdecl RescanBus  (WORD       BusNo);

The bus is to be rescanned by the driver to check for devices present.

Two sensible uses for applications:

  1. Tool for checking devices switched on later. Example: SCSI.CPX.

  2. Program searches for a given device and does not find it. Use 
     RescanBus, then repeat search. Example: GEMAR. If no streamer was
     found, then after RescanBus a streamer will be looked for again.

This way, devices switched on later can be incorporated in the device 
list.
