That means you're running low on battery.However, if it's a pulsing light, that means your PS5 is either charging or entering Rest Mode.Finally, if the LED bar below your PS button is orange, it means the controller is muted.This is extremely important: you don't want to be accidentally chatting in voice lobbies because your microphone is active.Playing on another deviceWhen you're connected to something other than a PS5, the lights take on a different meaning.A blue and white light-pulse means that you're pairing with a device.And a solid blue indicates that the pairing is finished.An orange-and-white light means that your DualSense is paired to another device.And a pulsing orange light signals that your controller is charging.So you won't be sharing any images or audio from the webcam, microphone, or your party chat.However, the video may include online IDs or chat messages on your screen depending on the game that you're playing.You can see your published videos in settings and remove them at any time.</div></body>
