As a configuration

This configuration matrix represents the 7-cube. The rows and columns correspond to vertices, edges, faces, cells, 4-faces, 5-faces and 6-faces. The diagonal numbers say how many of each element occur in the whole 7-cube. The nondiagonal numbers say how many of the column's element occur in or at the row's element.[1][2]

Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates
for the vertices of a hepteract centered at the origin and edge length 2 are

(±1,±1,±1,±1,±1,±1,±1)

while the interior of the same consists of all points (x0, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6) with -1 < xi < 1.

Projections

orthogonal projection. This orientation shows columns of vertices positioned a vertex-edge-vertex distance from one vertex on the left to one vertex on the right, and edges attaching adjacent columns of vertices. The number of vertices in each column represents rows in Pascal's triangle
, being 1:7:21:35:35:21:7:1.
