Accidentally turned on indoor sprinkler valve

After I had my sprinklers blown out, I accidentally turned on my basement valve to the sprinkler system for maybe 5 seconds. Do I need to get my sprinkler system blown out again?

Five seconds is long enough. If this is going to maybe happen again, you need to take steps to prevent it.
