Have you set up the Desired Capabilities? Here's a reference for that:

Can I use local appium server with local emulator or not?

If yes, then why it's saying remote device.

Go by what the Appium server error says. Perhaps one of the others on your team who uses Appium can give you the credentials to use.

Look at the actual Appium server message. Perhaps someone else on your team can give you the credentials to use.
