It is called the Precision Timing System.
This is a battery operated devise that has a lanyard with a small microphone that is next to the whistle (you must use a Fox 40 BTW). When you blow the whistle the clock stops on a dime. There is a button on the belt device that allows the officials to start the clock as well. The table has a wireless remote that can start and stop the clock as well as a safety device to start the clock or stop the clock in case the officials PTS devices do not work. I have used the system about 5 times so far in my career. Many conferences use the system and have for some years now. The NBA uses the system exclusively if you watch the officials.
Peace
