Ques regarding minimums (RVR, VIS, etc)

Hey guys. Please try to keep this simple for a fairly new guy.

Basically if I'm looking to shoot an ILS approach cat 1, RVR on my jeppeson plate says 550 and DA is 405.
If I have that RVR and that ceiling, I can shoot the approach, simple as that.
If not, I can try to shoot it till approach ban/outer marker or 1000 feet, correct?
What if the weather given to me is VIS and not RVR?

Also, I see a conversion table, I had to crop the top out I'm sorry but it basically says it explains when conversion of Reported Visibility to Equivalent RVR is allowed:

So when you have an RVR, you're allowed to convert.
I don't quiet understand this, it's very confusing to me.
Can someone please simply explain this to me.

Very much appreciated.
