How do you use Sniffer?

https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-tools/Development-Tools/nRF-Sniffer-for-Bluetooth-LE/Download#infotabs

After connecting the nRF52-DK and the computer, I entered the sniffer_nrf52dk_nrf52832_7cc811f file into the removable disk that comes out, but an unknown message is displayed on the UART monitor.
How to use this software?

     This is not the correct way to program the firmware. You should program sniffer_nrf52dk_nrf52832_7cc811f.hex into the chip through JLink. You have two options:

    1. Program with SEGGER EMBEDDED STUIOD

        

    2. nRF Command Line Tools 

    nrfjprog -f nrf52 --program HEXFILE_PATH --sectorerase
    nrfjprog -f nrf52 --reset

        

    You can find more information about nRF52-DK from this page.
