That setting is under the front panel. It also says you need a connection to a local standard. The 2000R will compare the local standard to the LORAN and give you the differnce.The information is available via the 488 interface.
It also outputs a 1 MHz and 10 MHz signal. It may be that the output signals will work without the external reference signal as that is definitely required to get the difference information. Maybe all you lose with out the reference is the difference information. Somebody will probably have a manual and will provide better info.
