You need to create a toggle helper for this automation,
It functions like a switch to turn your notifications on or off.
This will activate on your Awtrix Display every 5 minutes with your text and battery percentage.
You can customize your text with colors, or even display rainbow colors.
For the background, you can add an icon and choose its behavior, control the text display behavior, and select the duration time for the text.
The icon used in this blueprint is “1095” which you can download from your Awtrix devices.
