The channel is changed by the flash, not the camera. My AF540FGZ manual says to:

Turn the camera off
Attach the flash
Set the flash power switch to wireless
Press the wireless button to display SLAVE
Slide the setting switch down to the yellow dot
Press the Channel button [CH] to select the channel
Slide the setting switch back up to the white dot
Turn on the camera and press the shutter release half way to register the channel with the camera

Hope this helps!
