How do I get MAX to acquire data only on hardware triggers?

[Muga]

Hey,

I need to use the pci-6224 daq card to be hardware triggered. Here is what I did: -

1) I set these settings in the configuration setting changed my acquisition mode to 1 sample (HW timed) and set the rate to KHz

2) The trigger type as digital edge, my pfi pin and set the edge to falling edge

and here is what Max does it waits for the first pulse before acquiring data and after the first pulse it keeps constantly obtaining the data even without any triggers. I have used an oscilloscope to see whether I was generating any pulses in my pfi input but there are no pulses generated. 

So I was wondering whether any one could tell me some reasons as to why MAX keeps obtaining the data after the initial trigger?

Thank You
