plugin.tx_indexedsearch.search.rootPidList=xx
into 'setup' field of a TS Template, which is used in the page, where 
you want to set as the starting point of a new search

Put an extension template to the page, where you want to be as if a root 
page of you search.

or define just once in root

constant
indexedSearch.rootPidList=xx
setup
plugin.tx_indexedsearch.search.rootPidList={$indexedSearch.rootPidList}


and in some places of the tree

contant
indexedSearch.rootPidList=xx

indexedSearch.rootPidList can be anything - it is however reasonable
to define constant so, that you know what is the purpose of the contant
