Abstract
We present the τ-functions for the hypergeometric solutions to the q-Painlevé system of type E7(1) in a determinant formula whose entries are given by the basic hypergeometric function 8W7. By using the W(D5) symmetry of the function 8W7, we construct a set of twelve solutions and describe the action of  ~W(D6(1)) on the set.

Key words: q-Painlevé system; q-hypergeometric function; Weyl group; τ-function.
