	In the FLash Panel you have to define channels one by one.  To define a
ZAP channel just create a button for each ZAP channel you wish to
monitor.  Your ZAP channels usually should go something like:

ZAP/(span-number)-(channel)

	So if you have 10 channels in your first span they sould look like:

ZAP/1-1
ZAP/1-2
...
ZAP/1-10
