The CATCH-ENDCATCH statement is obsolete as of release was620. You should use TRY. CATCH. ENDCATCH.
The exception that will be raise is CX_SY_CONVERSION_NO_NUMBER, so you have to catch that exception or a super class of this exception class.
REPORT zfsl_sum_functions.
DATA: cin(50),
cout(50),
iin TYPE i,
iout TYPE i,
etext TYPE string.
DATA: rf_cx_error TYPE REF TO CX_SY_CONVERSION_NO_NUMBER,
        errortxt TYPE string.
TRY.
    cin = '123ABC'. " how can i catch this
    iout = cin.
    WRITE: iout.
  CATCH CX_SY_CONVERSION_NO_NUMBER INTO  rf_cx_error.
    errortxt = rf_cx_error->get_text( ).
    WRITE errortxt.
ENDTRY.
