Allocation is not following the trigger variable status

Allocation is not following the trigger variable status

Hello,

I created an Allocation to allocate the value of a source variable to a target variable. this allocation is to be triggered by a binary trigger variable which toggles every 5 seconds.
However, the target variable's value is changing as soon as there is a change in the source variable, regardless of the trigger variable state.
I understand that "If no variable is linked, the allocation is spontaneous. This means that whenever the value of the source variable changes, it is automatically written to the target variable". But why is this happenning even when the trigger variable is linked?

Thanks in advance.
