With a Eclair ACL the only timecode system you can use is a timecode slate
for the camera and a timecode generator for the tape recorder.
Nagra and Stellavox with built in timecode is o.k., but on most DAT´s the
timecode generator is not accurate, therefor you need a separate timecode
generator.  
Timecode slates are  made by Denecke, www.denecke.com.

Aaton make a small timecode generator for tape recorders, GTMS:

Ambient Sound, a Munich based company in Germany, is also making timecode
slates end generators. www.ambientsound.com/

Good luck
