Is it true that there is no emergency stop in the ABB Robot PC SDK?

Hello. I am a developer who is creating a robot GUI in .NET and WinForms environment.

The reason is that I want to check if there is no emergency stop API in PC SDK.

Of course, since it is an emergency stop, I think it is right to handle it with hardware or PLC, etc.

In the PC SDK manual, there were stop and start methods for tasks, but I could not find an emergency stop method for the controller.

I know it is an immature question, but I would appreciate it if you could answer.
