To put your PS4 controller in pairing mode, you need to follow these simple steps:
1. First, turn on your PS4 console.
2. Locate the reset button on your PS4 controller. It is a small hole on the back of the controller.
3. Use a small tool, such as a paperclip, to press and hold the reset button for a few seconds.
4. The light bar on the controller will start flashing, indicating it is now in pairing mode.
5. On your PS4 console, go to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth Devices.
6. Select "Wireless Controller" from the list of available Bluetooth devices.
7. Once the controller is connected, the light bar will stop flashing, and you can start using it to play games.
It's important to note that the PS4 controller will automatically go into pairing mode when it is first connected to a new console or device. However, if you need to pair it with a different device or console, you will need to follow the above steps to put it in pairing mode again.
