This link might be helpful if your supply uses a UA723 regulator like the Astron. It show an Astron schematic with a minor mod to allow float charging a battery without concern if the AC power fails. The mod involves cutting a circuit trace at pin 4 of the UA723 and bridging the break with a 10K resistor.
