Time to switch wifi users between FortiAp's

I have FG61F, FSWicthes, and 4 FAAP's in the office when i move in the office to another location i will still be connected to the original AP which the signal in the new spot will become very low and it will take 4-5 mints to switch my connection to the closest FAP 

Can i control the switch time ? is there is parameter for that ?

 

Thanks

This tech tip explains how it works.

The idea is that the roaming is decided by the client, not by the AP.

So I guess there should be a specific tuning procedure for each OS or for each WiFi adapter driver.
