The example you link shows you how to set properties. You can simply copy the lines and modify the property IDs and values like so:

propertyMap.SetValue(ic4.PropId.ExposureAuto, "Off");
propertyMap.SetValue(ic4.PropId.ExposureTime, 3000.0);

propertyMap.SetValue(ic4.PropId.GainAuto, "Off");
propertyMap.SetValue(ic4.PropId.Gain, 30.0);

An overview over available property IDs can be found in our documentation: https://www.theimagingsource.com/en-us/documentation/ic4dotnet/api/ic4.PropId.html

If you want to only save a limited amount of images you should modify the while loop that fires TriggerSoftware to stop after the image count you need.
