LabVIEW 8.6 can import the 5.1 VIs, correct?
I think this is your first issue, if I'm correct LabVIEW 8.6 can only read 6.0 and up.
In typeadapting VI (unflatten from string) you can set the endianess of the data so you should have no issues there.

I assume that LabVIEW will byte swap on a Little Endian (Intel x86) machine, and the effort required to make each and every packet properly byte swapped for the embedded system is formidable.
LabVIEW is big-endian on all platforms (evem x86) so you should not have any problems here.

I would be extremely surprised if our GUIs running in LV an x86 processor would process the data correctly both ways.
Well, be extremely surprised, but LabVIEW is big-endian on windows, probably exactly for compatibility reason such as this: 🙂
See for example this link.
