Crank sensor

Hey guys, just what does the crank sensor do on my 92 CTD? Yea, I know it tells the engines computer the RPM, etc, but what does the computer do in response to the engine? Does it adjust pump timing or fuel delivery? Since this doesnt have the electronic pump, I am quite curious.

If this fails what could be the symptoms? Hard starting cold? Rough idle? Inconsistant fuel deilvery? Has anyone been there-done that with this year truck?
