I have the directions for this item and tried to paste them here, but exceeded the amount of space allowed. Will send in several replies. FIRST:

HOLIDAY LIVING HEAVY DUTY OUTDOOR DIGITAL POWER CENTER

MODEL #LW28080 ITEM #0050024

INSTRUCTIONS:

NOTE: To set up Timer for the first time, plug in the timer for 10 minutes, then insert a sharp pointed object or opened paper clip into the pin hole marked "RESET" to clear all settings.

SET THE CURRENT TIME

1. Press the CLOCK button.

2. Press the DAY button to set the current day of the week.

3. Press the HOUR button to set the current hour. Be sure to take note of AM / PM.

4. Press the MIN button to set the current minute.

5. Press the ENTER button to finish setting the time.

Note: If you do not touch any buttons for 10 seconds, it will automatically save the time.

Continue to Digital Timer Mode or Photocell Timer mode below.

To have your lights turn on and off at specific times throughout the week, choose Digital Timer Mode.

To have your lights turn on every day at dusk and off at dawn or after 1 - 12 hours, choose Photocell Timer Mode.

    Yea, yea, yea. All of the directions are great, but I bought two (2) of these #LW28080 timers at the same time at Lowes. Both are exactly alike.... dead! The red lighted switch on the side is lighted and stays on, doing nothing. That's it, that's all. Everything is dead! Receptacles stay dead. No readout, no nothing! All I can read on the blogs or in the so-called instructions is the startup steps...., plug it in for 10+ minutes, paper clip to set the reset, and so........ There is absolutely NO display in the window... on neither timer, never! I cannot get a straight answer from the factory website or the public, just the startup procedure which does nothing. At 1:30pm Central Time, Thursday, 6-1-17, I called Customer Service and got a telephone recording that says to call back during "regular" business hours of 10am-6pm EST, M-F! This is a Mickey Mouse piece of dog droppings, manufactured by a Mickey Mouse company!

How do I find the manual override on the six outlet Smart Electrician Power Stake?

Product not fully identified... attach photograph of product
Product manuals often do not match product today... globalization has shortcomings.
On analog timed units, override can be slide switch, round knob... or many power stakes do not have override
On digital power stakes, override can be sequence of buttons or one button.
Following link shows many common power stakes timers to help identify product and add a followup question.

Our holiday decorations are blinking. I want constant light. How do I stop the blinking?

Photo eye is getting exposed to light, so the eye thinks it's day and turns off, but then it's dark so eye turns light back on: lights blink on-off

My yard stake is a tower with 6 outlets and a single button to set, the brand is Holiday Living. I can't get it to come on at dusk and run for 4 hours without the lights blinking. I want a constant...

Put black tape over photo electric eye and see if lights stay on without blinking.

Dusk-type yard stake has photo electric eye, which is visible as round glass ball.
Lights from circuit can cause photo-eye to think it is daylight, so circuit turns OFF.
Moment later, photo-eye thinks it's dark and lights click back ON

Usually 6-outlet yard stakes have 4 top outlets controlled by timer.
Normally bottom 2 outlets are ON full time.
Make sure bottom outlets are not blinking also, which implies problem with outdoor circuit or basic timer problem.
Check circuit with inexpensive circuit analyzer from Home Depot electric department.

Photoelectric eyes go bad easily, but usually they don't blink.
They stick ON or OFF.
