Start airconditioning system automatically

I would like to switch an air conditioning system automatically. The rules are simple:
If the SOC> 98% it should start and if the SOC <60% it should stop and it shoul stop also if another system uses 1000W.

So the rule is exactly the opposite of the generator rule. Unfortunately, this cannot be inverted. You could use a switching relay that inverts the generator circuit?

How would you solve that?

What Venus device do you have? If you have a CerboGX or VenusGX then the relay has NO & NC contacts, you can achieve what you want by simply using the NC contacts.

But if you want complete control consider using Venus OS large image with Node-RED https://www.victronenergy.com/live/venus-os:large, it is still in beta phase/not officially released but working very well for some time now. Note that Venus OS large image / Node-RED is not officially supported and may require some time to be invested if it is totally new to you.
