I am able to acquire data from NI-5160 2ch digitizer.
However, I am still finding it difficult to understand some concepts of High Speed Digitizer even after going through the help manual.
My goal is to collect data once the 5160 sees a trigger. Trigger is supplied by a high-precision pulse generator. The trigger width is 5ns and the delay between the trigger and pulse output is almost 0. So I can safely say that the rising edge of the trigger and pulse coincides.
The following figure shows when the reference position and trigger delay for the digitizer was set to 0.0.

Hi
One doubt, are you using the NI-SCOPE soft front panel? I think this is a good option to play with the triggers!
Also, you can search examples that are shipped with LabVIEW, you can go to find examples, hardware input and outputs, modular instruments, NI scope, you could probably check the niScope EX multi device configured acquisition.
Actual Record Length Changes with Requested Sample Rate When Using NI-SCOPE , this is a good KB.
Some useful information:
