It forces the controller to position the track at index point, the very beginning of the track. A sector value of X'FF' is the only value that causes the controller to bypass setting an angular position. Of course, this could also be bypassed by not having a set sector command or a locate record command with a sector value of X'FF', but then you defeat the original intended purpose of RPS.
