I don't think the above is the best solution, as it hides the warning 
instead of really fixing it.

Your problem is that some legs of the switch are missing setting the 
value of rc, it would therefore be better to fix the legs instead of 
setting a default value which may not be correct for every case, 
allthough it may be at the time being.
