# Slot: local 


_Marks this as a LOCAL (surface/local-connectivity) coupling term rather than a global long-range coupling. Local terms are never wired to the connectome; they evaluate to 0 unless a local/surface connectivity is supplied (TVB's ``local_coupling``). Global coupling inputs (the default) are driven by ``Network.coupling``._
