Hi,
Any SoftDevice that is compatible with the nRF52840 can be used with the nRF52840 dongle. The key is that you use a SoftDevice that is compatible with your firmware (when you build bluetooth firmware using the osl nRF5 SDK, that includes header files for a specific SoftDevice version).
PS: If you add the accompanying SoftDevice hex to the programmer app, you will not have to specify the SoftDevice version
PSS: Note that this is only relevant for the old nRF5 SDK, the nRF Connect SDK does not use the SoftDevice (the SoftDevice Controller used there is different and included in the application binary once the application ins built).
