In Commander Farsight's Special Rule "Break away faction" It says "Crisis Battlesuits Count as 1+ Units in the same way as Fire Warriors..." What does that mean exactly?

It means exactly what it says, you must have at least one unit of crisis suits in your list for it to be legal.

Also, wrong forum.

As above. Tau Firewarriors are "1+", meaning you must have at least one unit of them. Making crisis suits +1 means the same - you must have at lesat one unit of them.

It adds to the mandatory options for a Tau army.

A normal Tau army MUST take one unit of Fire Warriors and one Broadside commander(Farsight counts for this)

Farsight adds another restriction that you MUST take at least one unit of Crisis Suits.
