Testing of Oxygen in Boeing aircrafts

Hi,

This is mainly for B777 fleet for guess most or all of the Boeing fleet has the same oxygen system.

There are two switches, RESET/TEST and EMERGENCY/TEST buttons. My company policy is to hold on to INT and press RESET/TEST, there should be oxy flow through speaker and yellow cross displayed, after which, release INT and hold on to both RESET/TEST and EMERGENCY/TEST buttons and yellow cross is displayed with PSI not dropping more than 50psi.

My ques is, when you test for oxygen, do you hold onto INT and both RESET/TEST and EMERGENCY/TEST buttons at the same time or just the RESET/TEST button and then as per above?

Thanks
