Haddy-
You need to use a relay with a 12 volt DC coil and 120 volt contacts. Radio Shack has a few choice on the shelf. Easy to build put it in a small plastic project box. Then you run the 120 volt cord out of the relay "project box" to the line side of the power supply or to a wall plug or to your UPS.
I had a relay but I took it out and run 24/7, would you like to see an image of the thing I built?
