Local executions new indicator (BETA Firmware)

[Brad_ST (Brad)]

I believe it relates to this. The result is nondeterministic from a user perspective.

SmartThings smart plugs - suddenly cloud connected?

What is happening here is that when it attempts to run locally it isn’t going to find the corresponding DTH to run and consequently it will fall back to default local handling. In most cases that is going to be essentially the same as what our standard DTHs do (with a few minor differences here and there). So while you can set that flag, it likely won’t result in the behavior you want. And certainly making changes in the groovy DTH you are self publishing will have no affect on the locally executing device.
