«How " * - if $forceSyncMode parameter is set to TRUE" is set? Where?»

According to this, I’ve detected one thing more.

Could you precie how " * - if $forceSyncMode parameter is set to TRUE" is set? Where?

/**
 * Sends order invoice email to the customer.
 *
 * Email will be sent immediately in two cases:
 *
 * - if asynchronous email sending is disabled in global settings
 * - if $forceSyncMode parameter is set to TRUE
 *
 * Otherwise, email will be sent later during running of
 * corresponding cron job.
 *
 * @param Invoice $invoice
 * @param bool $forceSyncMode
 * @return bool

{
    $invoice->setSendEmail(true);

        $order = $invoice->getOrder();
