I've never used the system but I believe hitting the switch causes both the game and shot clock to run. It is up to the shot clock operator to do the resets and recalls of the clock. I know the NBA PTS systems also have a switch at the table that the game clock guy uses in addition to the officials. The NBA PTS system also records every clock stop, who stopped the clock, and who started the clock.
