When a window screen intrusion detector is triggered, the appropriate action is to investigate the cause of the alarm. This is crucial because it allows the individual to assess whether there is a genuine security threat, such as an attempted break-in or an unexpected incident, like an animal triggering the alarm. Investigating provides clarity on the situation and enables proper response measures to ensure safety.

While other options may seem practical, they do not address the immediate need for assessment. Simply waiting for the alarm to stop does not provide information about the security situation. Resetting the device immediately could overlook a potential threat. Disabling other security devices can compromise the overall security system and is not advisable until the situation is fully understood. Therefore, investigating the cause of the alarm is the most responsible and necessary action to ensure safety and respond appropriately to any potential threats.
