Remove the external voltage source immediately, when

Hello once again!

The below-mentioned sentence is also from a manual about brushless three-phase synchronous generators.

Remove the external voltage source immediately, when the generator voltage rises.
I'm sorry to have discontinued but I had to reset my laptop. Shouldn't the sentence in the heading have been written like this?

Remove the external voltage source immediately that the generator voltage rises. or Remove the external voltage source immediately (that) the generator voltage rises. I don't think the comma is necessary. I may be wrong.
It would help if you gave more context - it could be describing a test procedure or it might be a safety warning for an action to take if something is going wrong. The choices are if, when, that or nothing, depending on context. The commas should not be needed.
The preceding sentence is: Measure the generator voltage during the excitation process. The subsequent warning reads as follows: Danger of inverse voltage!
In this case context means more than just the sentence before and after. You need to explain what the section of the manual is about.
The title of the publication is "Mounting, operating and maintenance instructions for series SE and SEH brushless three-phase synchronous generators". It is unavailable on the Internet.
The title of the section of the manual is "Behaviour (of generators) during operation and notes on use. The manual has been written by Germans.
If this is a warning that generator voltage rise indicates that there is a malfunction it would be
"Remove the external voltage source immediately if the generator voltage rises."
If the user is applying an external voltage as part of a planned process - perhaps a start-up or a routine test:
"Remove the external voltage source immediately when the generator voltage rises." (I prefer this) or
"Remove the external voltage source immediately the generator voltage rises."

On reflection, I can't think when I might use "that" in this sentence.
When the generator voltage rises immediately remove the external voltage source.

Observation - action... The sentence is now in the right order for an operating manual....
