This is a bit tricky as Mathcads 3D-plot is quite limited.
You can only plot over a rectangular area of the xy-plane.
You can set the x- and y limits when you double click the plot to get into the plot format menu and then chose the tab "QuickPlot Data".
If you set eg Range1 to run from -10 to 0 and Range2 from 2 to 10 you will see a plot as all meshpoint evaluate to real values.
As you have seen, the whole plot fails even if just one single pair (x,y) evaluates to a non-real number or to NaN.
Another way round is to redefine your function to return a dummy value (-1 in my example) in case the value would get non-real.
Then I set the z-axis manually to go from 0 to whatever seems appropriate so the dummy values are hidden.
One other thing is to use CreateMesh. It gives you a better control over the x- and y-limits and you don't have to change them in the format menu.
