The multiplier is a scaling factor that takes the raw register values and feeds them into meaningful physical units, like degrees Celsius, liters per minute, volts, etc. Since raw data from hardware devices usually represents a range of numbers that, not directly in units we can easily understand, using a multiplier would ensure that data can be interpreted in real-world terms.
