There are two (sort of three) different U.S. Equities exchanges. They are the following:
- NASDAQ TotalView: Has volume just for NASDAQ, but does include Market Depth data. Symbols use a -NQTV suffix (e.g. IBM-NQTV)
- U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape: Has volume for all the exchanges for which an instrument is traded, but does not have Market Depth data. Symbols use standard symbol (e.g. IBM).

The third option is to have both of the above activated and then use the symbol with an _MBO suffix. This gives you the consolidated volume for the symbol along with the NASDAQ TotalView market depth information (e.g. IBM_MBO).

Any symbol can be typed in at any time. Each exchange only has a limited number of pre-defined symbols, which are the most popular ones.
