1. Use the LineSelector parameter to select CL Spare as the output line.
2. Set the value of the LineSource parameter to LineTriggerWait, ExposureActive, UserOutput, or
Off. This will select the source signal for the line.
You can set the LineSelector and the LineSource parameter values from within your application
software by using the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the
parameter values:
// Select the line trigger wait signal for the CL Spare output line
camera.LineSelector.SetValue(LineSelector_CLSpare);
camera.LineSource.SetValue(LineSource_LineTriggerWait);
// Select the exposure active signal for the CL Spare output line
camera.LineSelector.SetValue(LineSelector_CLSpare);
camera.LineSource.SetValue(LineSource_ExposureActive);
// Select the CL Spare output line as a user output
camera.LineSelector.SetValue(LineSelector_CLSpare);
camera.LineSource.SetValue(LineSource_UserOutput);
// Disable the CL Spare output line
camera.LineSelector.SetValue(LineSelector_CLSpare);
camera.LineSource.SetValue(LineSource_Off);
For detailed information about using the pylon API, refer to the Basler pylon Programmer’s Guide

You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
