Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to handle someway the error 50050 " Position outside reach" via Error handler or in some other way.

I would like that if this error happens, robot will continue the execution from the next instruction.

Thank you!

Hallo, you may try to calculate a jointtarget from your intended robtarget. The function CalcJointT can generate an recoverable error, when the robotarget is out of reach. See description for the function.
