Silence effect help?

I want to trim any silent period in a file longer than seven seconds down to seven seconds; that is, keep the first seven seconds of silence
and discard the rest. I tried "silence -l 1 1 0 -1 7.0 0" but it seems not to work after the first instance. For this project, digital 0 is
a fair definition of "silence"; but I'm sure just changing the two 0's would account for that issue in other projects.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but this effect's syntax has always confused me a bit.

What did I do wrong in the above effect?

Thanks much for any info.
