DMX is supposed to be a "standard". I looked at the manual online for the GOBO light. I had no idea what GOBO meant, but now I understand that it has a color wheel in it that produces the various colors. Channel 1 on this light controls color based on the DMX value 0-255. It says that value 20-29 produces function "Combo 01". It doesn't say what color that is but it is one of the 14 colors that this light will produce. Channel 2 is for strobe and different values will produce up to 6 different strobe speeds. Channel 3 is the pan servo and channel 4 is the tilt servo. I assume they are servos and should probably be set up in VSA as "DMX-Servo". Channels 1 and 2 should be set up as "DMX-Dimmer" in VSA. When working with DMX lights in VSA you can select "pulse" or "linear" signal. I think I remember that when you set it as "pulse", an event on that channel will send a constant pulse for whatever value you have set until that event ends. Linear will continue to send the last value in the event until another event changes it. I'm not positive about that though.

Your other light has 6 channels. It looks to me that Channel 1 sets the control/operating mode. For your application, I'd leave channel 1 at 0. Channel 2 controls red 0-100%, Channel 3 control Green 0-100%, Channel 4 controls Blue 0-100%. Channel 5 is for strobe speed. Channel 6 is for dimmer, which allows to keep whatever combination of RBG you have set and brighten them and dim them in unison so the color mix doesn't change. I reckon that all of the channels on this light should be set up in VSA as "DMX-Dimmer".

Remember that if you have your light commands in VSA on say Track 50, VSA will send DMX signals out over DMX address 51. Be sure that all of your lights starting address that you set via the dip switches on the light, are set for the first DMX channel that VSA is going to communicate to that light with. If we put your Vue light on VSA track 50, we would set the dip switches on the Vue light to address 51, Switches 1,2,5,6 would be on. All others would be off. Track 50 in VSA then would be set up as #50 (name)Vue ch1, DMX-Dimmer, Enttec-open,
#51 Vue Red, DMX Dimmer, Enttec-Open
#52 Vue Grn, DMX Dimmer, Enttec-Open
#53 Vue Blu, DMX Dimmer, Enttec-Open
#54 Vue Strb, DMX Dimmer, Enttec-Open
#55 Vue Dim, DMX Dimmer, Enttec-Open

While you still have setup open, I'd go in and set Track50 (Vue Ch1) values to: Minimum 0, Default 0 and Maximum 255.

I'd set all of the other Tracks, 51-55 the same.

Once you've done that, you should be able to go back to VSA's event window. Scroll down to Track 51 Vue Red. (I don't think you're going to need to do anything with track 50 other than leave it at 0.) Left click and drag on line 51. A rectangle will appear. Double click on the rectangle. A box will popup all allow you to set the stop value. Set this to a number between 1 and 255. The higher the number the brighter red.

Once you've created the event, you should be able to click on the play symbol and your light should start off then go red.

Tracks 52 and 53 will operate the same way for their respective colors.

Some of the lights I have won't light up at all unless strobe is on max (255). If your lights don't respond, I'd try that on channel 54.

Track 55 is the "global" dimmer for that light. It will brighten or dim all of the active colors at the same time.

Here's the manuals I referred to on your lights.

EDIT> I found this free little program, Mini Stage Console" that I got to work after reading the help file. You pull down the edit menu to "patch". In the patch menu, you set the DMX address for each slider. The 6 channel light I tested began on DMX address 103. I set slider 1 to 103, slider 2 to 104, slider 3 to 105 and etc through slider 6. Then you can go back to the slider window and play around with the sliders to see what the light will do. You can pull down the view menu to "as DMX level" and it will display the DMX value 0-255. This tool will allow you to decide what DMX values are best to set in your events in VSA for each channel of your light.
