There are two notification types, that can be triggered by sending a command over mqtt to the panel here are examples for homeassistant scripts:

Seperate Page

pageType popupNotify

entityUpdateDetail~internalName~heading~headingColor~button1text~button1color~button2text~tB2Color~notificationText~textColor~sleepTimeout~fontIdText

Alternative Layout with Icon:

entityUpdateDetail~internalName~heading~headingColor~button1text~button1color~button2text~tB2Color~notificationText~textColor~sleepTimeout~fontIdText~icon~iconColor

fontIdText is the font used by the notification text Possible values are 0-5: 

Font 0 - Default - Size 24 (No Icons, Support for various special chars from different langs)
Font 1 - Size 32 (Icons and limited chars)
Font 2 - Size 32 (No Icons, Support for various special chars from different langs)
Font 3 - Size 48 (Icons and limited chars)
Font 4 - Size 80 (Icons and limited chars)

You need to use the acual char for the icon instead of the icon name which is used in the configuration. You can get the char of the icon from the cheatsheet.
