Why did the controller light go off?

[cns00]

I am using my PS4 controller to play games on my laptop. I am using PlayStation support in Steam to play games that don't have native PS4 controller support. I am playing a game which refuses to recognize PlayStation support in Steam and it's not detecting the controller so I had to use AntiMicroX to map the controller to keyboard buttons.

I was playing the game and I left it idle for a few minutes. Initially, the light on the controller was blue and then it became orange after the game was idle for a few minutes and then the light switched off. The game still recognized the controller but using the controller didn't switch the light back on so it's blue. The first time the issue happened I was able to switch the light back on by exiting AntiMicroX and the second time that the issue happened I was able to switch the light back on by alt tabbing to AntiMicroX.

I want to ask did AntiMicroX switch off the light when the game was idle for a few minutes? If yes then how do I disable that?
