If you look in the MSF service manual at the section for the battery 
revert power supply, you will find that it has an output signal 
called AC FAIL [active low] which is connected from the power supply 
to the station control tray through the station's interconnect board.

This control signal is on pin 6 of J603 on the power supply 
distribution board.  The pin is unused on power supplies that do not 
have the battery revert option.

If you connect your external 'running on UPS' signal to that point, 
that should accomplish what you want.
