Baseline Voltages

Hi

I'm curious to know the general practice for setting baseline voltage
determinations for leukemia/lymphoma testing.  BD has an automated setup
method that uses labeled or stained beads, that sets baseline voltages as
well as compensation for the Canto.  They suggest that these beads be run
every day as a QC measure.  Should the voltage settings, established by
these beads, be used for L/L testing or should baseline voltages be
determined using representative clinical material or normal PB lymphocytes?

Thanks, in advance, for your input.
